STUDENT AND ALUMNI PROFILES

“The MSAT program at Merrimack was a great opportunity for me to save time and money while also getting the degree I wanted.”

“Merrimack was ahead of other MSAT programs, in my opinion, because they had great facilities with super personable faculty and a surplus of clinical affiliations. I knew that by going to Merrimack,  I would be able to find the best fit for my practice through their extensive list of clinical sites.”

“Merrimack’s program was the best in this area. Not only were they one of the first to transition to the Master’s degree, but they were also offering a fully on-ground academic experience.”

“I learned a lot about myself and the type of clinician I want to become. From emergency care to ongoing rehabilitation, my preceptor allowed me to provide comprehensive care and take on my own patient load. This opportunity enhanced my confidence in providing quality care throughout the phases of injury, while working with a wide array of athletes at various states in their recovery.”

“Overall the instructors, resources, and experiences provided the best experience I could hope for. I loved being able to do my clinical hours off campus at other schools to see how other institutions practice athletic training. I also appreciated the program director’s and other instructors’ ability to listen to my feedback about the program.”

“The M.S. in Athletic Training set me up to be successful as an Athletic Trainer. Merrimack prepared us really well. When I graduated, I felt fully equipped to enter the real world.”

“I decided to attend Merrimack College because I wanted to broaden my network. I also found that Merrimack offered one of the most expansive clinical affiliation lists, which is huge for student’s ability to gain hands-on experience within the field.”

“Learning new skills and knowledge in the classroom and then using them at my clinical sites was very beneficial. I was able to see what being an ATC would be like before graduating and to get a good feel for how everything works.”

“The Merrimack faculty really helps push you, in a great way. Their faith in me helped me throughout my experience. I feel that the program is preparing us well for the clinical rotations.”
