TEAS

The Test of Essential Academic Skills is required as an entrance exam for the Nursing Program.  This is a four part assessment developed by Assessment Technologies Institute consisting of subtests in Reading, Mathematics, Science, and English with 170 total questions.  The TEAS is a timed test with a total testing time for all four test areas of approximately four hours. 

 The score reporting system for the TEAS includes a composite score for each of the four general areas. Sixteen sub-scores are generated to assess specific content mastery.  Scoring is automatic; and scores are received within 5 minutes of completing the exam.

 The TEAS test may be taken only once a semester and students can take the test three times in a five year period.
