The HESI A2 Test is the admissions test for the Surgical Technology Program. Based on the results from the test, the top 24 candidates are accepted into the program. The test covers basic math and reading. There is a study guide available for purchase, HESI Evolve Reach Adminssion Assessment Exam Review by Mosby, 2nd Edition, ISBN# 978-141-6056355. The book includes samples of the type of questions offered on the HESI and it can be purchased at any of the NCTC bookstores for about $40.00. HESI testing is done in the spring of every year.

Authorization to Test Form

At the advisement session, the student will schedule an appointment and receive an Authorization to Test form to take the HESI. If the student looses the Authorization to Test form, they must attend another advisement session. Also if the student does not bring the Authorization to Test form on the day they take the HESI test, they will not be allowed to test, nor will the Surgical Technology faculty and staff give out another form. The student is responsible for keeping up with the testing form.
