Seventh and eighth semesters (year four)
If you're admitted into the Master of Athletic Training program (MAT), you will take graduate courses in the summer after your sixth semester (year three).
If you don't want to do athletic training (or are not admitted), you will work with your advisor to develop your year-four schedule based on your career interests and/or to strengthen your application to the MAT program once you finish the sports medicine program.
