In order to alleviate the cost burden for chiropractic students taking their board exams, the National Chiropractic Mutual Insurance Company (NCMIC), along with the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners, have created the Bucks for Boards scholarship program.
NCMIC will be offering $500 to 200 recipients in 2020 for a total of $100,000 in scholarships. This will help some of the approximately 6,400 chiropractic students who take the board exams each year.
Bucks for Boards scholarships will be awarded four times during the year. Students can enter once per entry period and the names of winners will be randomly drawn at the end of each period.
This is not the first program that NCMIC has instituted to help students. The Starting Into Practice® Program has held on-campus presentations preparing students for their own practice for the past 20 years. Their website provides students with in-depth information regarding business, marketing, practice structures, finances and more.
