Further to this.... I am glad this worked out for this chiropractor, but I think the focus of this forum is IUHS.

Having seen a "traditional" medical school and knowing all of the activities undertaken in labs, etc. I personally don't believe that on-line education offers as thorough of an education as in-class, but who knows what the future will hold? I can tell you, though, that the way IUHS is teaching, the students at this school are not receiving a satisfactory medical education.

We all read about doctors who are negligent, etc. and I fear that IUHS may be producing some similar doctors. I was told a story by one of the admin people there that they had a vet doing on-line education. When he went on to clinicals, complaints were received because he couldn't do proper doctor-patient interviews (he was used to animals, ha ha). This does provide the point though that these students are not receiving needed skills.
