Graduate Assistantships
The Athletic Training Program sponsors a variety of funded graduate assistantship opportunities for BOC certified and Arizona Board of Athletic Training state licensed athletic trainers. Students applying to the Athletic Training Program are encouraged to apply for a funded graduate assistantship. Numerous graduate assistantships are available at local high schools and colleges and generally require 20-30 hours of work / week. Funding for graduate assistantships ranges from approximately $7,000 to $22,500 annually (average = $11,000 / year). Tuition waivers are not available and the graduate assistantship employer pays funding directly to the student. Applicants interested in obtaining a graduate assistantship are encouraged to complete the admissions process early.
