Chiropractic (Pre-Professional)

Start Strong. Transfer with Confidence.

Barton’s Pre-Professional Chiropractic curriculum is designed to meet the general education and prerequisite science requirements for most chiropractic colleges. This program provides a solid academic foundation for students planning to transfer into a Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) program.

While the degree includes essential coursework in biology, chemistry, and other sciences, it does not include clinical training and does not result in a professional credential. Students will complete general education courses required for a Barton degree while preparing for transfer to the chiropractic school of their choice. 

Please note: This degree track does not include clinical training and does not result in a professional credential. It is designed to prepare you for successful transfer into an accredited program.
