The ATI TEAS® was developed to evaluate the academic readiness of applicants to health career programs. In order to apply to the clinical portion for our dental hygiene, RN and LPN programs, HACC requires applicants to take the TEAS test. Refer to program websites for complete criteria and minimum scores required.

TEAS test must be scheduled at a HACC campus. 

• Choose a testing session at a date and time that works best for your schedule. Keep in mind the following as you register for a testing session:
  • Schedule your test at least 48 hours in advance (ATI will send an email receipt) 
  • You will receive a confirmation email from HACC 1-2 days prior to you testing date with important test-day testing information. 
  • It doesn't matter which program (nursing/allied health) or campus you choose - the test is the same and the Composite/Percentage score will be the same regardless.
• New test dates will be added regularly - keep checking the ATI website and check Gettysburg, Harrisburg, Lancaster and York HACC locations. We are limited to how many dates are posted at a time. Dental Hygiene students also select "TEAS for Nursing" - it's the way ATI lists all HACC tests.
