Did you know: 32 National Football League teams take advantage of the benefits of chiropractic medicine. Each of the 32 teams has a chiropractor on staff to increase performance, maintain the players’ well-being, and treat musculoskeletal strain and injury.
The pre-chiropractic pathway is designed to help students complete the minimum requirements for most chiropractic institutions. Students must maintain a minimum 2.5 GPA for consideration by chiropractic schools, although most institutions prefer a GPA above a 3.0 when accepting applicants.
Internships are available with local chiropractors. See the course description for HLTH 493 Internship and meet with an advisor for more details. For additional information on chiropractic programs in the United States, visit the Association for Chiropractic Colleges website.
