Can I send my TEAS scores to multiple schools?
Yes, you can send your TEAS scores to multiple schools. Here's a detailed explanation of how the process works:
​
Initial School Report
​
When you take the TEAS test, you'll typically have the option to send your scores to one institution (often referred to as the "home institution" or the location where you took the test) for free. This initial report is included in your testing fee.
​
Sending the Results to Additional Schools
​
If you wish to send your scores to additional schools beyond the initial one:
-
Log Into Your ATI Account - Your scores are stored in your ATI account; you can send them to other institutions.
-
Navigate to the Transcript Orders - Once logged in, look for an option related to sending or ordering transcripts. This might be labeled "Transcript Orders" or "Send Official Scores".
-
Select Institutions - You can search for and select the institutions to which you want to send your scores.
-
Pay the Fee - A fee is usually associated with sending your scores to additional institutions. The payment should be around $27 per school, but checking the current price on the ATI website or through your account is crucial.
-
Confirm and Submit - Ensure all the details are correct, especially the institutions' names and any program-specific codes or identifiers. Once you're sure, submit your request.
​
Electronic Delivery
​
Most schools now accept electronic delivery of TEAS scores, which speeds up the process. Once you've requested and paid for an additional transcript to be sent, the school should receive it relatively quickly, often within 48 hours.
However, always check with individual institutions to understand their preferences and the expected time frame for receipt.
​
​
Keep Records
​
Always keep a record of your TEAS scores and any transcript requests. It's an excellent practice to screenshot or print confirmation pages for your records. If there's any issue, you have documentation of your request.
​
Plan Ahead
​
If you know you'll be applying to multiple schools, plan ahead for the associated fees and the time it might take for each school to process your scores.
Make sure to send scores well in advance of application deadlines.
​
Follow Up
​
After sending your scores, it's a good idea to follow up with the institutions to ensure they received them. This can typically be done by contacting the admissions or registration's office.
Sending your TEAS scores to multiple schools is straightforward, but attention to detail is crucial to ensure that all institutions receive your scores promptly.
