For US schools:
Almost all chiropractic schools in the US are private and not state subsidized. Chiropractic school is usually divided into 10 trimesters. At about $7-8,000 per trimester, the cost of your chiropractic education comes out to be about $70-80,000. But considering the course load of a chiropractic student, you cannot really work to pay your bills. Therefore, most chiropractic students will end up borrowing the maximum each trimester, which is about $15,000. That then comes out to be about $150,000 in student loans just to get through chiropractic school. Some schools do a quarter system or a semester system, but the end result is the same, at least $150,000 in student loans by the time you are done. Add in your undergrad loans and you will probably be at the max for student loans, $180,000, or even more.
For a Canadian School:
The chiropractic school in Canada is also private and not government subsidized. Canadian Memorial Chiropractic COllege offers a 4 year program, and tuition costs $21,000 per year (as of 2010). Thus, a student should expect to pay around $84,000 in tuition to complete the chiropractic program.
For comparative purposes, medical school at University of Alberta, which is subsidized by the government, costs $12,000 per year, and totals $48,000 for tuition after 4 years of training.

In 2011, tuition at most chiropractic colleges in North America is approximately $22,000 per year over four years, about $85,000 over the whole program. In addition there is cost of rent, food, books and supplies, etc.
With all the expenses considered, it is estimated that it takes about $150,000 to complete chiropractic college.
