Home-Schooled Students

Home-schooled students and students attending high school may enroll to take courses while completing their high school requirements. Cleveland Chiropractic College provides the opportunity to enroll in the undergraduate coursework as long as home school or high school applicants have a 3.0 minimum grade point average and at least two advanced placement science courses with a minimum grade of on an official transcript.

Such students must file the application for admissions, application fee and a letter of recommendation, preferably from the high school principal or appropriate instructor. If the student is under 18, parental approval is required. Enrollment for such students is limited to four (4) semester hours per module.

Home-schooled high school graduates are required to meet the following admissions requirements:

• An official high school or GED transcript with a minimum grade point average of 2.50 on a 4.00 scale or a passing score. The high school transcript must indicate a date of graduation. However, students with a minimum gpa of 2.00 to 2.49 may be considered for a conditional acceptance for one (1) semester or two (2) modules. An official certification of the California High School Proficiency Examination will also satisfy this requirement.
  
  
• Official ACT composite test score of 21 or above OR an Official SAT composite test score of 990 or above. (The CCCKC campus ACT code is 6545. The CCCLA campus ACT code is 6544.)

However, Cleveland Chiropractic College recognizes certification or verification from an accredited or appropriate home-school agency as high-school equivalency. The high school GPA requirement and ACT/SAT scores may be waived if the applicant has at least 24 post-secondary semester units from a regionally accredited institution with a minimum gpa of 2.0. Applicants may be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the Admissions Committee if their ACT or SAT scores do not meet the minimum required scores.

Placement exams may be required and introductory courses are offered for students who may not have met lower division science prerequisites and/or not passed the placement exams.All prospective students are encouraged to speak with academic advisors for course planning, as well as to be informed on any changes in the requirements.
