BS(Hons) Health Sciences, Pre-Chiropractic

Course Overview

The BS/DC program is for the academically outstanding student with strong, realistic motivation toward the chiropractic profession. Initial study at the University of Hartford allows you to complete the general education and basic science requirements for the BS in health science degree and the prerequisites necessary for professional study. The BS degree is awarded by the University of Hartford following the successful completion of the first year of graduate study. Students who are not in the accelerated program typically complete the BS degree in four years at the University of Hartford.

The chiropractic program requires three and one-third years of combined academic and clinical training leading to the DC degree, which is a prerequisite for licensure eligibility in the United States. NYCC provides students with an accredited three-and-one-third-year professional chiropractic curriculum.

General Eligibility

The combined program is for the academically outstanding student with a strong, realistic motivation toward the chiropractic profession. Applicants must excel academically and may be interviewed by representatives from both institutions. Students admitted into the program are expected to maintain a 3.25 overall grade point average during their matriculation at the University of Hartford, with a minimum grade of C in all required courses. Final admission to the New York Chiropractic College is contingent upon successful completion of required program course work, the recommendation of the health science program director, and completion of a satisfactory interview with NYCC admissions officials.
