That's a good question to ask the schools that you are considering! Ask each athletic training department how easy it is to get hands-on experience. Who knows, maybe some only reserve that opportunity for grad students or medical students?

The only school that I applied to in Georgia was Emory (which is located about 10 minutes outside of Atlanta). I visited the campus just once (for accepted student days) and was very impressed by the layout and architecture. The buildings are rather new and the school is backed by Coca-Cola, so shiny and high-tech is rampant around campus. It's a Division III school, which might be a turnoff for you, but I know that Emory athletics squads are pretty competitive within the Division and that the students are highly, highly supportive of the teams.

The vibe, from what I gathered, is pretty-laid back. Imagine lots of smiling students playing frisbee and hanging out in warm-weather clothing all throughout the extremely green campus. That's what I saw during my visit. The drawback is a lack of your provided academic interests. The closest majors to what you're looking into are the Health/Physical Education and Biology programs - which may just be a deal breaker for you.

As for me, I chose a school in the Midwest. I'm a Midwestern guy, through and through. Emory, however, was the last school crossed off the list. Good luck!

Thanks I'm applying to Georgia Southern University. I plan to enroll there in the spring, but unfortunately I have to wait another year to get into the athletic program. As they dont have the prerequisties I need to get in at my current college and they start accepting applications in april to i can only complete one of the two classes I need to take before the april deadline. so I have to wait for April 2013 to apply. Such a bummer.

We have a lot of great outside shooters. Unfortunately, we play all our games indoors.

Oh, how cute! A Georgia fan thinking nobody from Florida is around and that it's okay to talk smack.
