Our quarter system means you don’t have to wait for a once-a-year intake. You can start in any quarter with 4 intakes in California and 2 in Nebraska and finish in as little as 3–3.5 years.
Life West is competitively priced, and Canadian students receive a 20% international tuition credit, making your education more affordable without compromising quality.
At Life West, you won’t spend years in lecture halls before working with patients. Our Clinically Inspired Curriculum puts you into hands-on, real-world learning environments early in your education—starting with technique courses and simulations, then progressing into patient care in our on-campus Health Center. By the time you graduate, you’ll be confident, experienced, and ready to serve from day one.

Life West’s board leadership includes Canadian doctors and alumni, including our current Chairman of the Board. We understand what Canadian students need to succeed — both here and when they return home to practice.

From India to Mexico to Tonga, these transformative experiences allow you to apply your skills, broaden your perspective, and live out our mission to Give, Do, Love, and Serve from your own abundance—long before graduation.
From our campuses in California’s San Francisco Bay Area and Bellevue, Nebraska, to service trips around the world, Life West offers a chiropractic education grounded in science, heart, and purpose. You’ll graduate confident, practice-ready, and connected to a global network of chiropractors.
