Troy University has a great Athletic training program, and the track team is starting to develop some potential.
Florida State University also has a great AT program, but their track team is full of suck . (Just kidding, their track program is one of the tops in the nation)
I think that the University of Florida has a AT program, have to check on that, but their track team is also one of the tops in the nation.
That is all i know so far, but I will post some more schools with a good t&f program and a good AT program as well.

University of Florida and University of Georgia both have very high caliber athletic training programs. I know at both of those schools that is is almost impossible to be an athletic trainer and compete in athletics for the school. Something to consider.
I go to Lindenwood University now and we also have an accredited program that is more flexible. Many of our trainers are also athletes.

If you wanted to major in AT (like I do) what would be a general course schedule? What kind of degree is it?
It depends on the school that you go to but it will be a 4 year degree (either a Baachlor of Science BS or a Bachlor of arts BA)
Here is a link to the schools program that I am going through. It is a BS

Well the letters that would follow your name would be "ATC". You would take Kinesiology, Clinical Proficiencies in Athletic Training, Therapeutic Modalities,Athletic Training Evaluation, Exercise Testing/Prescription and EKG Nutrition, Exercise Performance, Nutritional Aspects of Health,
