Articulation
agreements are statements of equivalency between schools with regard to
courses, programs, or whole majors. This dual degree program will
require approximately
three years of attendance at UW-W followed by a minimum of five academic
years of eight
months each of attendance at Palmer College. The
chiropractic program is arranged so a student
may choose to complete the chiropractic curriculum in three and one third
consecutive years.
Essentially a student will spend three years at Whitewater and then three
and one-third years
at Palmer. Upon successful completion of the approved equivalent courses
between Palmer and
UW-W, as described in this document, credits will be transferred back to
UW-W, converted to
semester credits, and applied toward a Bachelor of Science degree with a
major In Biological
Sciences (Cell/Physiology Emphasis) and a Chemistry minor. After all chiropractic coursework
is completed at Palmer, a Doctor of Chiropractic degree (D.C.) is conferred.
Students who
successfully complete the dual degree program will be eligible to participate
in commencement
ceremonies at both Palmer and UW-W.
UW-W students will be accepted
for admission to Palmer under this dual degree program upon:
(a)
meeting the prerequisite requirements
for admission to Palmer as
described in this document,
(b)
attaining a minimum B (3.00)
cumulative grade point average in
UW-W coursework,
(c)
receiving a positive recommendation of the Chair (or designee) of
the
Department of Biological Sciences
at UW-W, and
(d)
timely submission of all application materials to Palmer.

For admissions beginning with
the fall class of 2003, the Council on Chiropractic
Education (CCE) requires that all entering students must furnish proof of
having
earned a minimum of 90 units (semester credit hours), to include at least
30
semester hours in upper division credits. Palmer considers upper division
courses
as those defined by the granting institution as junior and senior level
courses.
At UW-W these would be at the 300 and 400 levels. The 90 unit requirement
is
not specific nor does it dictate in which course areas the
upper division credits
must be earned (hard science, social science or humanities). However, the hours
needed to fulfill this requirement cannot be earned in a Doctor of Chiropractic
program. In other words, you cannot fulfill this requirement by using upper
level
courses that would transfer back to UWW via the articulation agreement.
They
must be earned prior to enrollment at Palmer.
