Hi there,

I’d like to apologise ahead of time if this may have been placed in the wrong forum, the site tends to be a little complex. I’m planning on attending university of Athletic Training, and get a BSAT with emphasis on something that allows me to teach at a high school, or university. I’m sure most of you are unfamiliar with the accrediation processes, but some schools are accredited to teach the major and others are not.

I really need to attend an accredited AT university, that is close enough to home. I live in Texas, so that really leaves me with Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana. I’m going to list the schools for you below, and would really like some honest advice about the ones you are aware of. I personally am in big on college athletics and support the UT Longhorns, although I know that cannot be the only place that I apply to.

The following aren’t all the accredited universitites, but rather just the ones that are on my radar. Most of the others are too small for my taste.

Texas:
Baylor University, Waco, TX
Texas Christian University, Fort Worth/Dallas, TX
Univeristy of Texas - Austin, Austin, TX
Texas State University, San Marcos, TX

Oklahoma:
Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK

Louisiana:
Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA

Arkansas:
University of Arkansas, Fayetteville
