About the A.D.C.

Vocational Nursing Applicants: You may take the A.D.C. if you cannot submit scores either from THEA (previously called the TASP) or Accuplacer, passing all sections, ACT with a score of at least 20 or SAT test with a score of at least 940. Remember if you have a college English and Math class with a 2.0 GPA, you may be exempt from taking any test.

How to Take the Test

In order to take the A.D.C. Exam you must have your file complete. There is a $15.00 testing fee that must be paid in advance to the Office of Admission. Your name must be on the list to test and you must bring a photo ID with you. The test will take about 2hrs and 45 minutes. You need to plan on being here about 3 ½ hours total.

The A.D.C. Exam will be given at:
Schreiner University
Weir Building Room 007
2:00 PM
Please report to the testing room by 1:45 PM

If you choose to take the A.D.C. Exam, there is a book you may want to purchase to help you study. The book is Nursing Schools and Allied Health Entrance Exams, by Marion Gooding and the publisher is ARCO. You may find this book in the Schreiner University bookstore or the public library. You may also want to get a book on general math to help prepare yourself. The GED study guide is another book that could help with math and English. Just a reminder the study guide(s) are not like the test. They are to help you prepare for taking a timed test if it has been sometime since you have taken one.
