Online TEAS exams available

Online TEAS exams availableLuna Community College’s nursing program is adapting its required entrance exam, the TEAS, to online administration — and rolling out a schedule of
testing dates for the months of May and June.

The program is incorporating Proctorio, a test proctoring service that will monitor students as they take the Test of Essential Academic Skills while it is administered online. Online testing has become a necessity in light of the COVID-19 outbreak and resultant social distancing measures.

The new schedule of TEAS dates begins the week of Tuesday, May 12; several testing times are available through June 12. While these dates are for online testing at this time, on-campus testing may be scheduled depending on COVID-19 restrictions.

In order to take the TEAS online, students must use a laptop or desktop computer with Google Chrome browser and a reliable internet connection. The computer must have a working webcam and microphone. Students must have a valid ID to take the exam.

The proctoring service increases the cost of a TEAS exam to $70. Individuals who qualify for one free exam (because they took Luna’s free TEAS prep courses) will not be charged the additional fee of $5.

Yvonne Pina, student services specialist for the nursing program, advises students who plan to take the TEAS to watch an instructional video and to review an instructional document prior to their test date.
