A Career and Curriculum Preparatory

The full-day, Saturday preparatory program at Northwestern College of Chiropractic is designed to provide prospective students with a substantive introduction to the science and practice of chiropractic along with insights into the Northwestern curriculum and clinical internship.

The topics have been carefully selected to enhance your understanding of the profession and assist in your preparation for pursuing the chiropractic curriculum. They are presented by experienced educators, administrators and clinicians.

Northwestern attaches great importance to this unique preparatory program in positioning prospective students for success in our doctor of chiropractic program. For that reason, and in recognition of the commitment prospective students demonstrate by participating in the preparatory, Northwestern will award either a $500 first-term tuition grant or reimbursement of travel and lodging expenses up to $500. Both awards are made contingent upon application to Northwestern. Attendance is limited to students who have completed at least 30 undergraduate credits.
