I'm a 24 year old male living in Orange County, California. How much schooling do I need to become a Chiropractor? How much school am I looking at in the future if I were to take this route?
Answer:
It depends on how much college you already have and where you want to practice.
If you just take prerequisites it's 2-1/2 years of undergraduate and 4 years of Chiropractic schools.
Some areas - not sure about Canada but Washington and Florida - require a bachelors degree first.
Most people then intern with a private chiropractic office for 1-2 years before opening their own place - which I recommend.
Good luck. The real opportunities are overseas - there are way too many in the US and starting to be that way in Canada too.
Answer:
Chiropractic college is five years long. You can enter right out of high school. The previous answerer is wrong - it takes much longer to become an M.D. like me…
Answer:
my chiropractor stated it takes longer to get through chiropractic school than it does to become an md. thats at least a good 8 years.
