Top Reasons Students Pick USC

"The people. I came for the type of people who were in and about the program." -Craig Pfeifer, Class of 2014

"Quality program with many clinical opportunities."-Charles Emerson, Class of 2009

"The opportunity for a diverse graduate assistant experience to help me grow autonomously as a professional." -Joelle Gage, Class of 2014

"I really liked the way the Graduate Program was presented when I came for my interview. I liked that a strong emphasis was placed on the academic side of the GA position, and not just on the clinical setting, like many other positions. I wanted a Masters program that would help me advance my knowledge through classwork and clinical work." -Ashley Claprood, Class of 2014

"Quality of program; staff, reputation." -Victoria Stanislawski, Class of 2013

"I would be able to work as an athletic trainer while getting my teacher certification." -Stephanie Mitchell, Class of 2010

"The people/community - The classes are larger, which some like and some might not like, but it's just more people to learn from and be around. This also includes the faculty. They all just seemed happy to be there, and were very encouraging throughout the process." -Justin Goins, Class of 2009

"There is an invested effort for the classes to get to know each other and learn from each other. I had a lot of friends who went to graduate school other places and there was not the same type of environment to encourage the students to become friends, beyond just colleagues. It is important to creating a program that people really care about even after they leave." -Rebekah Hibbert, Class of 2009

"Variety of clinical sites, and the program director takes your interests into consideration when deciding your assignment. There are a lot of opportunities depending on what interests you have. The staff is very receptive to what you want to accomplish as a graduate student whether it be helping with additional research projects, being a TA, presenting research/case studies at conferences or helping at a different clinical site during your free time. There is a lot you can experience if you take the initiative and communicate with the staff. Classes are not just a review of what you learned during undergrad. When you graduate you will have advanced AT skills clinically and administratively. Projects are very applicable to real problems/situations that we may be faced with in the future." -Jessica Koler, Class of 2014

"Sound education." -Erin Lundy, Class of 2007

"Tri-fold mission: education, clinical experience, research. That is unique here and necessary to develop as a well rounded AT." -Dawn Emerson, Class of 2009

"Advanced faculty and staff that will push you to strive for greatness."-Corey Lopez, Class of 2014

"The opportunity to work in different clinical settings (HS, clinic, outreach); motivation towards research in athletic training and it's impact in health to gain awareness of the profession to different health care models, strong curriculum creates a good learning environment to help with future goals as a certified athletic trainer." -Erica Simone, Class of 2012

"The faculty has a wide variety of research interests which allows graduate students some freedom to focus on areas that interest them." -Collin Dixon, Class of 2009

"Not many programs that offers a range of clinical opportunities as vast as USC." -Samuel O'Brien, Class of 2014
