Applicants must have completed three academic years (90 semester hours or 135 quarter hours) of college credit acceptable toward a baccalaureate degree (see required distribution in next column). Pre-chiropractic courses must be completed at a college or university accredited by a regional accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education, or an equivalent foreign institution. No more than 20 semester hours may be acquired through CLEP examinations or challenging of courses, and only in courses other than required science courses. All science courses must be taken for letter grade. Specific course distribution requirements and examples of acceptable courses are as follows: Subject Biology (with labs): One academic year Animal/Vertebrate General Biology/Zoology, Anatomy, Physiology, or Microbiology 2. Minimum Semester Credits 6 6 General/Inorganic Chemistry (with labs): one academic year General Chemistry I and II or variations in course title (Principles of Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Introductory Chemistry) Organic Chemistry (with labs): one academic year First semester in the Organic Chemistry sequence (Organic I). The second trimester may be completed by taking Organic Chemistry II or Biochemistry (with lab). You will need a minimum of six semester credits. Most students will attain 8 to 10 semester credits after taking both lectures and labs. 6 Physics/Quantitative Sciences/Biomechanics: one academic year 6 First semester in an algebra or trigonometry-based General Physics I, with lab. Second semester may be completed by taking General Physics II or by taking Inferential Statistics (from a math or statistics department), Biomechanics, Kinesiology, or Exercise Physiology for majors. The second semester must be taken for a minimum of three semester credits. Psychology General Psychology, Principles of Psychology, or Introductory 3 Psychology 6 English, Literature or Speech Composition is strongly recommended. English, literature or speech courses are acceptable. Drama, Mass Communications, Theater and Journalism may not be used to meet this distribution requirement.

Total 3. 90 Only courses completed with a grade of C or better (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) will be accepted. A grade of C is not acceptable if the awarding college states that the numerical equivalent is less than 2.0. All coursework must be applicable to bachelor s degree requirements in a regionally accredited undergraduate institution; remedial or developmental courses will not be accepted. As indicated in the table of course requirements, Northwestern requires that students complete one academic year in each distribution within the natural and physical sciences. In other words, students will complete two semesters or three quarters in sequence. Science courses must be taken in the logical sequence for example, General Chemistry I must be taken before General Chemistry II. In most cases, students will complete 8 to 10 semester credits (12 to 15 quarter credits) in each distribution during a one-year sequence. All science courses should be foundation courses designed for science majors. Survey courses intended for non-science majors will not be accepted. 4. Applicants must have earned a cumulative grade point average (G.P.A.) of at least 2.5 and a science G.P.A. of at least 2.00. All course work is counted toward the cumulative G.P.A. and all science courses are included for the science G.P.A., not just selected course work. Applicants should realize that these are minimum grade points. To ensure acceptance, a more competitive grade point is desirable.
