Graceland University and Logan Launch 3+3 Pathway to Chiropractic Degree

Graceland University and Logan University have established a new 3+3 articulation agreement that creates an accelerated pathway for Allied Health students pursuing a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree.

Designed for students on Graceland’s pre‑chiropractic track, the pathway allows eligible students to complete three years of undergraduate coursework at Graceland before transferring to Logan’s DC program. After their first year at Logan, designated coursework will transfer back to Graceland, enabling students to earn their Bachelor of Science in Allied Health while continuing seamlessly into the remaining two years of the DC program.

By integrating undergraduate and professional coursework, the 3+3 pathway shortens the time to completion by approximately one year and can reduce overall educational costs. Students benefit from a streamlined academic experience that supports earlier entry into the chiropractic profession.

The collaboration carries personal significance for Dr. James Geiselman, a Logan graduate who earned both his DC degree and a Master of Science in Nutrition and Human Performance from the university. His experience provides valuable insight for Graceland students preparing for the transition into professional study.

Graceland’s Allied Health major offers multiple specialized tracks—including pre‑chiropractic, pre‑athletic training, pre‑occupational therapy and pre‑physical therapy—supported by hands‑on learning and access to advanced human‑performance technology. The new 3+3 agreement expands opportunities for students interested in chiropractic care and strengthens the pathway from undergraduate study into a professional healthcare career.
