Qualification is based on an assessment of all available information.
We look for strength and consistency, especially in recent academic preparation.
It is hoped that applicants can make a logical and articulate
connection between their employment, volunteer, academic, and chiropractic
experiences and the desire to pursue chiropractic education at Western States.
We look for informed thoughtfulness and commitment toward becoming a chiropractor
as well as evidence that there is a good match between the prospective student and the UWS program,
and that the student is likely to be prepared for the responsibilities to society inherent in being a licensed health-care professional.
