that'll depend on what school you go to. if you want to go to Michigan, you'll have to check on their website.

and before you get your heart set on Michigan, do you have the stats to be admitted there?

loslobos71

Dont know if UMich has it for honors. Pretty sure UMass does, although I didnt get in to begin with, so I never bothered figuring that out.

daman, sent you a PM.

here's what it said, in case anyone else is wondering...I'm not IN sports management. But very familiar with the programs.

I came into college as an Athletic Training major. SM was my backup. lost interest in AT and wanted to change majors. I'm at Iowa State University. ISU is phasing out the program, and next year's graduating class is the last that can graduate with a degree in Sports Management. sucks...but life goes on. so i heavily researched other schools for about 3/4 of first semester and almost all of 2nd semester, schools that offered Sports Management or Sports Marketing--that's how I'm so familiar with the programs you're asking about. I was going to apply to several of the schools listed in your thread and transfer to one of them, but my parents said "NO" to out of state tuition and therefore I'm still here at ISU. I'm a Marketing major w/ a Management minor (no specialization in sports), and its just more on my shoulders to find opportuniites. I have an outstanding internship at my school's Athletic Dept that gets me valuable experience similar to what I would get in a Sports-focused academic program.

This is by no means any form of ranking, however, here are the students enrolled at each sport management degree program in the U.S. Typically, if a lot of students are enrolled there, that means the program is good. Only schools with 200+ graduating seniors out of the program are listed.

Bowling Green State 451
Ohio 450
Massachusetts 400
Texas A&M 385
Liberty 378
St. John's 325
South Carolina 300
Georgia Southern 284
Michigan 278
Indiana State 265
SUNY Cortland 265
California U Pensylvania 248
Robert Morris 235
Washington State 220
Central Michigan 200
Louisville 200
James Madison 200
Ithaca 200

Note: Bowling Green's numbers are from the degree B.S.Ed. with concentration in sport information, sport marketing, sport enterprise, or athletic training and clinic management. This number may be larger than it really is, as it's a combination of these majors, not just the sport management major.
