TEAS Testing

Prospective students are required to take the ATI TEAS exam (v.6) before being accepted to the BSN program. The TEAS can be taken a total of three times at 30 day intervals. We currently offer the TEAS entrance exam twice per month via online proctoring. Students must meet with a faculty advisor for transcript review and be cleared in order to register for the TEAS. Faculty advisors will provide students with the information regarding TEAS registration once they are cleared to register.

Contact the School of Nursing at (225) 953-7017 or batonrouge@wmcarey.edu to schedule an appointment with a faculty advisor. The exam fee is $80 payable to the Business Office.
