Important Notice: TEAS Testing Due to the ongoing network outage, Navarro College Testing Centers are temporarily unable to administer the TEAS exam. In the meantime, applicants may complete the TEAS exam in person at another approved testing location, such as another college or an independent testing center, including Sylvan Learning Centers. We hope to resume TEAS testing at Navarro College soon and appreciate your patience and understanding. Please continue to check our website for updates.

The ATI TEAS is designed specifically to assess a student's preparedness entering the health science fields. Most likely, you've been asked to take the TEAS as part of your basic admissions requirements for nursing or allied health school. That's because studies show a consistent link between a student's performance on the TEAS and future academic success. |
