Make sure the school has plenty of hands on experience, *they should be involved in the community *(this will help with seeing a more variety of pt. and more patients to see) Find out what the average number of patients a student will see while in the clinic per day. The more patients you see the more you will learn.
What is the student to teacher ratio in the clinic!!!
Visit the schools your interested in and talk to the current students there. Also sit in on a few classes.
I would definitely recommend that you take your basics requirements like biology, A&P ect at your local community college to save you LOTs of money. Then transfer them into the acupt school.
