Other names. Texas Chiropractic College goes by TCC. Both names refer to the same accredited program. Sources: txchiro.edu, checked October 20, 2026.

In its own words. TCC says its program “emphasizes science-based instruction that strongly promotes integration with other health care disciplines” (Texas Chiropractic College’s own page, checked October 20, 2026). That is the program’s description, not ours.

Texas Chiropractic College tuition and cost

Texas Chiropractic College’s published tuition, in its own words and unit: $14,798 per trimester on the catalog’s cost-of-attendance page; $14,848 on the tuition page, for students “Enrolled after Sept. 1, 2023”. The two pages differ, and both are shown. (academic year: 2026–2027). Whole-program tuition total: Not published. Source: TCC catalog, cost of attendance, checked October 20, 2026 (as published on our cost guide); txchiro.edu tuition and fees, checked October 20, 2026 (as published on our cost guide).

That figure is tuition as the program labels it. Fees, books, equipment, housing and living costs are separate unless the program says otherwise, and the program’s own cost-of-attendance page is where it publishes them. To see every program’s figure in its own unit, side by side, read what chiropractic school costs.

Federal debt and earnings. The U.S. Department of Education does not report a median debt or earnings figure for this program; it suppresses figures for small cohorts to protect privacy. That is not a judgment about the program.

Texas Chiropractic College prerequisites and admissions

Texas Chiropractic College publishes three paths: a bachelor’s degree with a cumulative 3.0 GPA; 90 semester credit hours with a cumulative 3.0; or 90 hours at 2.75 to 2.99 with at least 24 semester credits of life and physical science. It requires no specific courses but recommends biology, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, physics, biomechanics and exercise physiology, with labs, and gives preference to applicants who took them. Texas Chiropractic College’s requirements page, checked October 20, 2026.

You apply directly, through TCC’s own online application, which it accepts year-round; its pages do not mention ChiroCAS. (Texas Chiropractic College application page, checked October 20, 2026) TCC does not publish start terms as such; its catalog calendar holds a new student orientation in the fall, spring and summer trimesters. (Texas Chiropractic College start terms, checked October 20, 2026)

Prerequisites differ from program to program, and some print amounts in units that differ from the next program’s. The prerequisites guide links every program’s own list.

Licensure in Texas

Texas licenses chiropractors through the Texas Board of Chiropractic Examiners. It requires ninety or more fully accredited semester hours of college coursework, with a C- or better, that are transferable to UT-Austin (a condition worth reading twice, because it is not simply a credit count); your chiropractic transcript and diploma; Parts I, II, III, IV and Physiotherapy of the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners; and a grade of 75% or better on the Texas Jurisprudence Examination.

This paragraph is taken from our chiropractic schools in Texas page, where the board’s requirements are quoted in full. Board: Texas Board of Chiropractic Examiners, checked September 21, 2026. You can be licensed in a different state from the one you study in; the board where you intend to practice is the only authority on what it requires.

Chiropractors and students from Texas Chiropractic College on the ChiroTrack podcast

No recording is listed here yet. ChiroTrack’s interview series ran from 2020 to 2024, and a guest is named on a page about their school only after they have said yes to it. That consent round has not gone out yet, so this list is empty for every program, not only this one.

If you trained at Texas Chiropractic College and practice now, you can join the register of chiropractors who make room for students.
