Each year, ambassadors volunteer their time and energy to be the student voice of the MSAT program. All of our ambassadors are actively involved on campus and work closely with the Admissions Office to provide an invaluable resource for prospective students.

We encourage you to speak with a current student about their experience applying to and choosing Pacific University's Master of Science in Athletic Training. Ambassadors' emails are provided below, and they will be happy to help you learn why Pacific is the school for you!

Amanda Lyon, Class of 2021

Email | lyon4368@pacificu.edu

Undergraduate Major & Minor | Kinesiology

Hometown | Columbia, SC

One reason I chose Pacific | I was interested in experiencing life in a new city for graduate school, but more importantly, I was also interested in attending a school where the faculty truly cares not only about the students' knowledge, but the personal well-being of the students as well. When I came to visit the campus and faculty last January, I immediately realized that the faculty within this program are passionate about their students’ education and truly dedicate themselves to sharing their knowledge to produce exceptional Athletic Trainers. From the start of my visit I instantly felt at home here.

Hobbies | Dancing, singing, hammocking, reading, flying/traveling, riding my bike, and attending any sort of sporting event.

One reason I chose Pacific | I chose Pacific University because of the clinical rotations we have available, starting right away in the fall semester, and the ability to learn and get certified in rehabilitation techniques for Athletic Training that will enhance our professional practice and employment opportunities. 

Hobbies | I love to hit a trail, hike, camp, rock climb, and explore new peaks! Bouldering is one of my favorite things to do on the weekend!
