Transfer Track/Chiropractic Medicine (CHIR-AA)

AREA OF CONCENTRATION: The primary goal of this transfer track is to prepare students for admission directly to the college of chiropractic medicine or to the upper division for continued studies to prepare for admission to chiropractic study. Although schools of chiropractic medicine do not require students to hold a bachelor’s degree, they do require a strong background in biology, chemistry, physics, and related areas, as well as specific requirements in the social sciences and humanities. Most chiropractic colleges require 60 ‐ 80 semester hours of course work prior to making application. The state of Florida does not have a school of chiropractic medicine at this time. Students should be familiar with the requirements of the chiropractic school they plan to attend.

PRIMARY ADVISER: Fledia Ellis (ext. 6020)
