A candidate may be considered by the Admissions Committee and admitted provisionally based upon the Committee's determination that the applicant demonstrates a suitability for graduate-level study of acupuncture and Oriental medicine, and has successfully completed a minimum of 60 semester hours or the equivalent in quarter credit hours in a regionally accredited institution of higher education prior to consideration for provisional admission. As a condition of Provisional Admission, the candidate may be asked to submit to a personal interview with representatives of the College and/or to enroll in and pass, with a grade of C or better, one or more courses at an accredited college during the candidate's first year of enrollment in the program.
