The choice towards Alternative Medicine has seen a steady rise in the past few years, as more people look outside of mainstream practices. People want a whole body approach that encourages them to be an active participant in their health. Using such things as diet, exercise, and meditation are encouraged to prevent disease, making alternative medicine a more proactive approach to healthcare.
Chiropractic medicine has benefited from this change in care. The projected growth for the profession is 12%, with 53,300 by 2026. As the need for more Chiropractors increases so does the need to educate those in the practice. The length of postgraduate schooling is between 3-4 years, depending on which school is chosen and if the institution offers an articulation agreement with certain colleges.

Paying for a chiropractic education can be daunting. Expect to pay more than $100,000 for tuition over the course of enrollment. Luckily, between work-study programs and scholarships, the majority of students never pay full price. What should be done if taking out a loan isn’t desirable or the school doesn’t award scholarships? Reach out to corporations and nonprofits!
ChiroHealthUSA provides a $10,000 annual Foxworth Family Chiropractic Scholarship for a full-time student enrolled in an accredited chiropractic school. They also provide a matching amount to the student’s school. The award is presented at the FCA National Convention in Orlando, FL.
HOSA partners with STEM Premier to provide scholarships to those pursuing a healthcare profession. Applicants must be a member of both organizations. When submitting an application, an official transcript, three written references, and a one-page personal statement are required.
If going into Animal Chiropractic is an eventual goal, Options for Animals offers three categories to apply for a scholarship: students currently enrolled in chiropractic school, graduates of a chiropractic college, and as continuing education for animal chiropractors. A letter of intent of why animal chiropractic was chosen as a profession, a letter of recommendation, and a curriculum vitae for postgraduates are required for submission.

Career satisfaction is relatively high for the chiropractic profession, with U.S. News ranking Chiropractic as #23 in Best Health Care Jobs and CNN Money ranking it #88 in Best Jobs in America. Patient satisfaction, low stress, and flexibility to tailor an individual’s practice to fit their lifestyle are some of the reasons for choosing and staying in the field.
