Please consider requiring a Bachelor's degree prior to matriculation into Colleges of Chiropractic for students planning to apply for licensure as Doctors of Chiropractic in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

I have worked as a chiropractic assistant in our state since 1977 for several different DCs and feel that it is past time for this requirement to be a part of Virginia's health regulations.

There are states which have had this requirement for many years. I always want my state to have the most top-notch providers of health care for its citizens.

Thank you for considering my request.
