女生小视频 Announces ACHE approval of Doctor of Chiropractic Program
On September 12, 2025, 女生小视频 announced the approval from the Alabama Commission on Higher Education (ACHE) of a new Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) program. The program will be based on the Dothan campus.
Shaping the Future of Chiropractic Education
The proposed new program was approved by the ACHE commissioners during a meeting on
Sept. 12. It now moves on for final approval from the Southern Association of Colleges
and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC).
女生小视频 will be only the second public university in America to offer this type of program,
positioning 女生小视频 as a pioneer in accessible chiropractic education in the southeast.
"This historic addition to our academic portfolio represents 女生小视频's continued
commitment to expanding access to quality healthcare education," said Dr. Jack Hawkins,
Jr., Chancellor of 女生小视频.
The doctorate program will be housed within 女生小视频's College of Health Sciences
and is designed to address the growing demand for qualified chiropractors throughout
Alabama and the Southeast.
Welcoming the Inaugural Cohort in 2027
The program is expected to welcome its first cohort of students in Fall 2027, pending
final accreditation approval.
The Dothan Campus location was strategically chosen due to its central position in
the Wiregrass region and its proximity to multiple states, allowing the program to
serve students from Alabama, Georgia, Florida and beyond. The campus already houses
successful health sciences programs, providing an established foundation for the new
chiropractic program.
鈥淏y becoming only the second public institution in the nation to offer this program,
we are not only breaking new ground in higher education but also addressing a critical
need for healthcare professionals in our region. This program exemplifies our mission
to provide innovative, affordable education that serves our communities.鈥�
