? About UNC's Grad Degree in Sports MGMT

[ACCecil]

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>This is for any UNC folks who know anything about UNC's masters in Sports administration/management degree. I have a few questions and would greatly appreciate any information anyone might have. I have already researched the degree as much as possible from the program's web site. </p>

<ol>
<li><p>Is it a limited enrollment program? </p></li>
<li><p>Are the internship/field experiences good, great or so-so? </p></li>
<li><p>Do you know anyone who was in the program and if so how did they like it?</p></li>
<li><p>Is UNC as hard to get into for grad school as it is for undergrad for OOS students? </p></li>
</ol>

<p>My son's plan is to attend Valencia CC's Honors program for his 1st two years out of high school. That is fine for his first 2-years. Then he transfers to FSU to get a BS in Sports Mmgt and a business degree in acctg or finance or Bus Admin. </p>

<p>Then it is grad school somewhere. That is where the fun comes in. It could be anywhere as long as he gets GREAT internships in D1A or D1AA sports administration. </p>

<p>We live in Orlando, FL. </p>

<p>UNC would be a great fit for him for grad school. I am excited about UNC's masters in Sports Admin. U-Miami has a good program and so does U-Texas. </p>

<p>Well, if anyone has any info on what UNC is doing for kids who wants to work in sports admin, please share. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I checked the program web site and saw something I missed earlier. The program admits 16 students per year and is “highly competitive.” Well, I suppose that answers question #1. </p>

<p>Actually, that makes my esteem for this program even higher. I do not like colleges that operate under the Let Everyone in and I am sure You Will Be Fine Later with some Diploma Mill Degree plan. I like limited enrollment programs. They are tough to get into but worth it if you can get in. </p>

<p>Right now, UNC is the place I dream about S#1 going to grad school. </p>

<p>We will see.</p>
