Application Process for BSN
TEAS Exam Policy
The MVC nursing program requires applicants to complete the TEAS exam as a component of the application process. Instructions for starting an ATI account to register for the exam are located on the MVC nursing website. MVC is an approved TEAS exam site. Students will be able to complete the TEAS exam during official exam test dates. These dates are posted on the MVC nursing webpage.- ATI School Register name: Mo Valley College BSN
- Students must obtain a 58.7% (Proficient) or higher.
- The ATI best practice for administering TEAS retakes, to help ensure students, best results is to limit the number of retakes per year with remediation periods between retakes. Students retaking the TEAS should be administered a different form from their previous TEAS attempts. Each student should be limited to three retakes in one year so all assessments taken are from different forms. The suggested remediation period is two weeks to 30 days, which is an appropriate time length and follows the majority of institutions’ remediation period.
- TEAS scores completed at an alternate location are eligible if official exam scores are provided by applicant.
