Area residents have until Friday, March 5, to register for the American College Testing (ACT) examination, which is being offered by Wor-Wic Community College on Saturday, April 10, at 7:30 a.m., at the college campus on the corner of Route 50 and Walston Switch Road in Salisbury.
Anyone who takes the ACT can have their scores sent directly to any college or university that requires the ACT assessment. Test results are used by educational institutions for admission decisions, course placement, academic advising or to identify candidates qualified for scholarships and loans. Scores are available within three weeks after the test date, and they are mailed to the student’s home within four to seven weeks.
Students interested in Wor-Wic’s nursing and radiologic technology programs can use their scores from this examination as one of the criteria for admission. Those who take the April 10 test will be eligible for admission consideration for the nursing program beginning in September of 2010 or the college’s full-time radiologic technology program beginning in July of 2011.
To obtain an ACT registration packet, call the admissions office at (410) 334-2895.
