The athletic training degree at Oregon State University is a master’s level degree. From 1974 to 2017 OSU had an accredited undergraduate athletic training program. Starting in the summer of 2016, the first cohort of students started in the new professional master’s program in athletic training. The new master’s program was granted accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) in the summer of 2017.
Review of applications will begin on January 15, 2019.
Applications will continue to be accepted until the cohort is full or April 1, 2019, whichever comes first.
Applicants are encouraged to submit their application by January 15, 2019 as there are a limited number of spots available in each cohort.
See our outcomes tables to learn more about the success of OSU AT students on the BOC examination and job placement.
Application requirements and admission criteria are available on the Athletic Training Program admissions page.

The Master of Athletic Training degree program (MATRN) continues the long-standing use of practical clinical education experiences. These experiential learning opportunities allow students to develop clinical expertise in the prevention, emergency care, diagnosis, referral, immediate treatment, and therapeutic rehabilitation of injuries and illnesses associated with participation in sport and physical activity.
The Finance and Administration’s Office of Business Affairs website contains the current information for tuition and fees associated with the cost of both the Athletic Training undergraduate and Master of Athletic Training degrees.
The tuition and fees are listed per term, per credit, and by residency status. MATRN students should use the Graduate Base Tuition rate to calculate tuition and fees.
The Finanical Aid and Scholarships apply page also contains a quick link for information on the application process for financial aid and scholarships.
There will be costs in addition to tuition and fees for students in the AT major. Other costs may include, but are not limited to: NATA Membership Fee (approximately $60.00), CPR and First Aid Certification (approximately $40.00), Board of Certification Fee (approximately $300.00). Transportation is needed for all off-campus clinical sites. Each student will have a minimum of one off-campus site.
