Research Opportunities

Conduct research alongside faculty members, giving you an advantage for graduate school or immediate entry into the health care industry. You may also have the opportunity to present findings at the Morningside University Palmer Research Symposium, the Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP), or at regional and national industry events.

PREPARING FOR CHIROPRACTIC SCHOOL

Applicants must have at least 90 semester hours of undergraduate study leading toward a bachelor’s degree, including prerequisite courses. Since it is not a minimum requirement yet, some students can complete the requirements in two years and then go, if they are accepted. Many applicants have a bachelor’s degree, which may eventually become the minimum entry requirement so you are strongly encouraged to pursue completion of a degree.

Requirements for admission usually include the following:
