It is the Test of Essential Academic Skills, which is now being offered at Wor-Wic through our vendor, ATI. The test is an assessment of basic academic knowledge in Reading, Math, Science, English and Language Usage. The overall score on the test will be used as part of the selective admission process for designated programs.
All applicants to the Wor-Wic Community College Nursing, Occupational Therapy Assistant, Physical Therapist Assistant, and Radiologic Technology programs must complete the TEAS as part of the application process. This must be done before the application deadline dates for the prospective program that applicants wish to enter. TEAS scores must be received by the college by the designated admission deadline dates and times.
Available dates and times for the TEAS sessions at Wor-Wic can be found on the ATI website at www.atitesting.com. Testing is done in the Maner Technology Center in one of our computer classrooms. Students must register and pay in advance on the ATI website to attend a session – no walk-ins allowed.
Students are required to pre-pay and pre-register for the TEAS by choosing Wor-Wic as their test location on the ATI website. The current total cost for taking the test at Wor-Wic is $102, not including optional add-ons such as study materials (costs are subject to change without notice). Payment is accepted using major credit cards. Students must bring a copy of their paid receipt and test registration confirmation from ATI when they come to Wor-Wic to test for the pre-selected date. Students also have the option to take the TEAS test online through remote proctoring directly with ATI. The current cost for the remote option is $120 (costs are subject to change without notice).
Scores for the TEAS will be available immediately following completion of the test. Official TEAS transcripts will be sent by ATI to the admissions office at Wor-Wic. Students may retrieve their scores online at www.atitesting.com. If a student cannot remember their username or password, or if they cannot locate their test scores, they need to contact ATI for additional assistance by phone at 800-667-7531. Only official transcripts from ATI will be received at Wor-Wic. We cannot accept copies of scores from students.
The TEAS is not a pass or fail test. Students who complete the TEAS will receive extra points based on their overall test score, as designated in the admission selection process information. Applicants should see the admissions information packet for specific score information along with referencing the program packet (nursing, occupational therapy assistant, physical therapist assistant or radiologic technology) for additional details.
