Pre-Chiropractic Program

Each school of chiropractic has its own specific requirements. It usually requires two, three, or even four years to meet the pre-professional prerequisites for chiropractic colleges. Students planning to go into chiropractic work should work closely with their faculty advisor to insure that all pre-requisites are met.

A dual degree program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Biology from York College and a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic (PCC), located in Davenport, Iowa, is available to qualified students. The dual degree program requires a minimum of 90 semester hours in the three year Pre-Chiropractic program. Upon submission of a timely application which meets all of PCC’s criteria for Admission, a York College student shall be eligible to enroll at PCC. Upon graduation from PCC with a degree of Doctor of Chiropractic, York College will award the student a Bachelor of Science degree. Students who successfully complete the dual degree program will be eligible to participate in commencement ceremonies at both PCC and York College.
