Licensure
All states require licensing for the practice of chiropractic. The College’s Doctor of Chiropractic degree program is designed to qualify graduates for state licensure examination. Certain states may require additional degrees or special courses at the preprofessional or postgraduate level to qualify the applicant for examination. It is the responsibility of the student to contact the state examining board to determine any special requirements. The Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards (FCLB) provides a listing of states and their requirements. A copy of the FCLB directory is also available in the Library.
