NYCC receives candidate status for acupuncture programs

New York Chiropractic College (NYCC) has been approved as a candidate for accreditation of its Master of Science in Acupuncture (MSA) and Master of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MSAOM) programs by the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ACAOM).

Candidacy status is considered by ACAOM to be an endorsement of a program’s potential for accreditation and indicates that the programs meet nationally accepted standards for quality education and training. In addition, graduates of the AOM programs are eligible to sit for the national licensing examination.

NYCC now has three years to apply for and attain full accreditation. To date, NYCC has enrolled 95 AOM students and will graduate its first class in August 2006.

Information about NYCC’s acupuncture and Oriental medicine programs is available at 800-234-6922 or www.nycc.edu.
