D'Youville's chiropractic program in Buffalo
D'Youville University, renamed from D'Youville College, runs its Chiropractic Program out of Buffalo, New York on a 10-term, non-semester calendar.

- Program: Chiropractic Program, 10-term (non-semester) schedule

D'Youville's published licensing figure
D'Youville reports a 92.3% four-year licensing rate: graduates who passed all parts of the licensing exams or were licensed to practice within six months of graduation, aggregated across 104 graduates. Individual years in that window ranged from 87.5% up to 100%. The school has separately publicized a Fall 2011 cohort where 9 students sat Part IV and 5 sat the CCEB Part C, and all posted a 100% pass rate on both, compared with national rates that year of 90.7% on Part IV and 79% on Part C.
What the range tells you
A year-over-year range from 87.5% to 100% on a small graduating class size means each cohort's outcome swings more than it would at a larger program, since a handful of students represent several percentage points either way. That's a reason to treat your own preparation as the variable you control, rather than reading too much into any single year's published figure.
Planning your boards on a 10-term calendar
D'Youville students confirm their exact term for each Part with the registrar. The NBCE's own eligibility windows for all five exams are laid out on our board exam overview.
Board-prep resources
D'Youville's chiropractic-program page doesn't list a named board-prep course, review series, or NBCE-specific tutoring the way some other schools do. Building your own review plan with outside practice material is worth doing early, especially given how much a single cohort's outcome depends on individual preparation at a program this size.
