CASPer Exam & Snapshot
NAU School of Nursing
***The Accelerated BSN program will be using CASPer and Snapshot for the summer 2023 application cycle.
As of November 2022, the School of Nursing has decided to discontinue the use of CASPer and Snapshot for the traditional BSN program.
Applicants for the traditional BSN program will no longer complete CASPer and Snapshot.
The NAU School of Nursing uses the Altus Assessments as part of the application process. All students will be required to complete the CASPer exam and Snapshot by exam deadline.
Please note that exam times are in Eastern Standard Time (EST) or Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). Sign into exam 10 minutes prior to start time. The exam will lock as soon as the start time begins. There will be no exceptions if the CASPer exam is missed due to time error.
