TEAS is a new test which will be accepted for admission into the Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program beginning with the Fall 2025 admission cohort.
ATI (Assessment Technologies Institute) TEAS® (Test of Essential Academic Skills) is designed specifically to assess students’ academic preparedness entering health science fields. This allows you to ensure the students you choose are right for your program before they even enter the classroom. Broward College administers all 4 subtests (reading, mathematics, English and language use, and science) of the TEAS for the Nursing program.
The Dental Assisting ATD program is still requiring the HESI A2 for program admission.
