FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I have taken the TEAS test, now what?
As a reminder to be eligible to apply to the RN program, the applicant after taking the TEAS nursing admission exam must earn a minimum composite score of 62 and a minimum score of 60 in both Math and Science. However, remember scoring the minimum does not guarantee acceptance into the program. You are competing against other applicants who may have a higher score or other factors that contribute to scoring them higher as an applicant.

What if I didn’t score the minimum?
If you do not score the minimum, then you are not eligible to apply for admission into the RN program. You can retake the TEAS test. It is recommended to allow time between testing although not required. Remember you are trying to score a higher score so it would be good to go back and do more review in anticipation of another retake of the TEAS test.

How many times may I retake the TEAS test?
An individual may retake the TEAS test a maximum of 4 times.

If I retake the TEAS test, what score is used for my application?
Currently the most recent score is used whether it is an improved score from the previous test or not. It is important when retaking the TEAS test to do better. So be sure to study and prepare when you decide to retake the TEAS test.

Is there an initial restart date after the 4th time maximum? If so, is the initial restart date determined by academic or calendar year?
Only four test codes from ATI will be provided. SoLAcc nursing only accepts the most recent score within the last 2 years.

Do I have to be a SoLAcc student or potential SoLAcc student to register and take the TEAS exam at SoLAcc?
Yes, only SoLAcc students may register and the take the TEAS exam.

Are TEAS exam scores accepted from the ATI remote proctoring option?
We are currently not accepting remote option test scores. If this policy changes, our website will be updated to reflect this.

Can I retake only one subject of the TEAS exam if required? For example Science only.
No, all parts must be taken each time you test.

Can I take the TEAS exam at another testing facility and hand deliver or email my test results to SoLAcc Testing Services to be put into LoLA?
No, all scores must be emailed from ATI or the tester must come to Testing (Ardoin Room 408), login to ATI account, and print results in the office.

Who do I contact for testing accommodations? And how far in advance do I need to set this up?
Testers must contact Stacy Upton (337.521.6656) or Stacy.Upton@solacc.edu) at least two weeks before the test date.
