Go ahead. There are a variety of schools and requirements. Some are pretty high level, some are not. Just scrolling through a google search during my lunch break I found one that would give both a BS and a DC in 3 years. Niiiiice.
There are no chiro schools in Washington. General opinion when I brought that up to my coworkers is that WA's requirements are just too high for a chiro school to make it here.
Nearest one to me is Western States in Portland. http://www.wschiro.edu/index.php They require at least 3 years of college before admission, and their DC program is 4 years. (so their graduates have 7 years at least) I would probably feel ok going to someone from that program. They also have a sports MS, which requires additional classes to those already required by the DC. So the more degrees someone has from Western States, the more work they actually did.
With DC, it really is "buyer beware." The chiros are working hard to get some standards set, but check each one out carefully before you go.
