Entrance test question....

I am working on my pre-reqs now and won't be ready to apply to any programs for at least 2 years. I will be applying to 4 or 5 local community colleges and they all have entrance exams. One is TEAS and another is NLN, I think. My question is....once I take the TEAS for one school, can that test score be used for the other schools that require the same test or do I have to take the test at each school I am applying?

I am still baffled about how difficult it seems to get into nursing programs when there is such a shortage and need for RN's. I am praying that this improves some by the time I am ready to apply.

Thanks in advance!

Once you take the TEAS, the score can be used for all programs that require it, but it can not be used for a different test. You have to take both.

If you do well in all of your prereq's then you shouldn't have to study for the TEAS. I have a 4.0 in mine and make a 92% on the TEAS.

I hope this helps...Good Luck to you.

Be sure to check with each school you're applying to. Believe it or not, there are a couple of schools around here that only accept test results from tests taken at their school. Why? I have no idea. But they make the rules. So to be absolutely certain, call those schools and inquire if you can take the test elsewhere. And check back with them as you progress through your studies. The school where I am doing my science courses just switched from the NET to the HESI this year. I'm betting some people were not too happy about that...

It is a maze that we have to travel through to get to where we want to be.

Best of luck in this exciting adventure!
