What TEAS score do I need for nursing school in Mississippi?
It depends on the program; ATI sets no passing score. 1 of the 5 Mississippi programs in this dataset publishes a total minimum of 60%. 1 more program names an ATI level instead of a number. A program’s minimum is the lowest score it accepts, not the score that makes an application competitive.
Do Mississippi nursing programs set TEAS section minimums?
None of the Mississippi programs in this dataset publishes a separate section minimum. Some may still use section scores when they rank applicants, so read each program’s page.
Is a 70 on the TEAS enough for Mississippi nursing programs?
A 70% total meets 1 of 1 published total minimum in Mississippi in this dataset. Meeting a minimum makes you eligible to apply; it does not predict admission, and section minimums or ranking may still apply. Treat any practice score as an estimate.
Can I take the TEAS remotely for Mississippi programs?
Not everywhere. 1 program here requires an in-person TEAS, at Northwest Mississippi Community College. Ask each program which format it accepts before you register.
How many TEAS attempts do Mississippi nursing programs allow?
2 programs here publish an attempt limit. For example, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College: Two retakes are allowed per year, 30 days apart, each after scoring 60% on a practice assessment. ATI itself requires no waiting period between attempts; the program’s rule is the one that counts.
