To qualify for admissions to a chiropractic doctoral degree program, entering students must have earned a minimum of 90 transferable semester units (135 quarter units) from a nationally or regionally accredited institution. There are GPA requirements based on whether you’ve completed your bachelor’s degree and the science course load you’ve taken (see the table below).
If you believe a chiropractic degree is in your future, schedule a call with an admissions advisor. They’ll give you a clear understanding of where you stand today, can perform a free transcript evaluation and help you lay out a clear path to getting accepted into Life West’s Doctor of Chiropractic program.
