The Department of Nursing admission/application dates:
Spring Application dates: August 3 - September 30
Fall Application dates: December 15 - February 12

The Nurse Entrance Test (NET) will no longer be available after March 2009. The Nursing department will transition to using the Test of Essential Skills (TEAS) produced by Assessment Technologies Inc.(www.atitesting.com/). We will begin offering the TEAS in May 2009. The TEAS is a 3 hour 20 minute test that will be offered every Wednesday at 2:00 PM and the second Saturday of each month at 9:00 AM. There is no set score requirement. However, the TEAS scores will be used in the points for admission considerations. Contact Ms Kristy Gose at (912) 344-3291 or Kristy.Gose@armstrong.edu to schedule a testing appointment. We will continue to accept the NET for students who have already taken that test.
