Prerequisite/Co-requisite
- Ayurvedic Health Counselor Program: The Ayurvedic Health Counselor program requires students to fulfill pre/co-requisites in Anatomy & Physiology for graduation.

To meet the pre/co-requisites for the Ayurvedic Health Counselor program, students must demonstrate the completion of 6 college-level credits or 90 hours of class time in Anatomy & Physiology from a recognized institution. The credits should be specifically awarded at the college level for Anatomy & Physiology. This is typically an Anatomy & Physiology 1 in addition to Anatomy & Physiology II at the college level.
It is essential to note that a Yoga Training Course that includes Yoga Anatomy & Physiology content will not meet these criteria and will not be counted towards fulfilling the pre/co-requisites. Any credits or hours that fall short of the specified requirement will not be considered, ensuring that students possess a strong foundational knowledge before embarking on their transformative journey in Ayurvedic medicine.
