Can I send my CNA scores to multiple schools?

Yes, you can generally send your Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) exam scores to multiple schools, especially if you are applying to programs that require proof of certification or if your CNA credentials can support your application to further healthcare-related education. However, the process and possibilities depend on a few factors:

1. State Regulations and Systems
Centralized Reporting: Some states have centralized systems that keep records of CNA certifications, and these records are accessible to employers and educational institutions within that state. This can make it easier to verify your certification across multiple venues.


Direct Access: In some cases, schools or employers can directly access your certification status through a state registry or an online verification system.


2. Requesting Transcripts or Scores
Direct Requests: If you need to provide a physical or electronic copy of your CNA scores or certification, you can often request this from the organization that administered your exam. There might be a fee associated with this service.
Formal Documentation: Some programs may require a formal transcript or a certificate as proof of completion and passing. In such cases, you can contact the testing agency or your CNA program to obtain the necessary documents.


3. Using CNA Certification in Applications
Educational Programs:
If you are applying to nursing programs or other healthcare-related fields, your CNA certification can be a valuable part of your application. You might need to show proof of your certification as part of the admissions process.
Employment Opportunities: Similarly, when applying for jobs that require or prefer CNA certification, employers may ask you to provide evidence of your certification either during or after the application process.


4. Additional Steps
Contact the Institutions: It's a good idea to directly contact the admissions offices of the schools to which you are applying to understand their specific requirements and procedures for submitting CNA scores or certification details.
Follow-up: Ensure that your scores or certification status has been received and accepted by the institutions.


When applying to multiple schools, it's important to check each school's requirements carefully and provide the documentation in the format they require. Some may need only a verification number or access to an online registry, while others might require an official document mailed directly from the certifying agency.
