Taking the Assessment Test

All individuals applying for any KPSAHS program (s) must prevent a valid photo ID prior to taking the Assessment Test.

The State of California, Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education requires our school to administer a standardized cognitive assessment test to all individuals who apply to our programs. This cognitive test is approved by the American Council on Education as a valid predictor of vocational training outcomes.

To maintain eligibility in the application process, all applicants must pass the standardized cognitive assessment test. All applicants to KPSAHS Imaging and Treatment programs must sit for and achieve a passing score on the assessment test. KPSAHS utilizes the Wonderlic Company Scholastic Level Exam as the assessment test to be taken by all applicants.

Applicants may sit for the test after submission of a completed application during testing hours in the identified application period. Testing is only administered at the main campus during the application period. There are no exceptions. It is the applicant’s responsibility to meet this requirement; the program will not contact applicants regarding this test.

Applicants are allowed three (3) attempts each application process to successfully complete the assessment test. There is no charge for the first two (2) attempts. There is a $20.00 additional charge for the third attempt. The State of California requires a one week resting period between retesting.

Accommodations will be made for individuals with appropriate ADA documentation.

"The Bureau of Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education (BPPVE) became inoperative as of July 1, 2007. However, KPSAHS has entered into a voluntary agreement with the Director of Consumer Affairs pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of Section 1 of the Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education Reform Act of 1989. The Bureau has determined that this institution's operational plan satisfies the minimum standards listed in Education Code Section 94915 (b)."

Applicants are responsible for scheduling their assesment exam.

Background Checks and Drug Testing

ALL CANDIDATES SELECTED INTO ANY KPSAHS PROGRAM ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE AND PASS A CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK AND DRUG SCREENING FROM THE DESIGNATED AGENCY AS A REQUIREMENT FOR ENROLLMENT INTO THE PROGRAM. STUDENTS WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL FEES ASSOCIATED WITH THESE PROCEDURES.

CONVICTION OF A CRIME IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC BAR TO ADMISSION TO A PROGRAM. ALL CIRCUMSTANCES WILL BE CONSIDERED. HOWEVER, FAILURE TO FULLY DISCLOSURE IS FALSIFICATION AND GROUNDS FOR IMMEDIATE CANCELLATION OF STUDENT ELIGIBILITY.

Background Check/Screening

• Prior employment verification
• Criminal history of felony and misdemeanor search
• Medicare/Medi-Cal fraud OIG (Office of the Inspector General) sanctions list verification
• Licensure/Certification verification
• Social Security Number Verification
• National sexual offender database search

Drug Testing

All prospective students to any KPSAHS Program and its clinical affiliates must complete and pass pre-enrollment drug testing demonstrating the absence of illegal drugs or inappropriate use of legal drugs. KPSAHS is committed to take appropriate action designed to ensure a safe environment for students, employees, members, patients, and the community, and to protect financial resources and assets.

All license and registry agencies have eliginility standards for their applicants that are independent of and may differ from Kaiser Permanente or KPSAHS. These standards address the question of an applicant's conviction of a felony or misdemeanor. KPSAHS assumes no responsibility for such eligibility standards. It is the applicant's/student's responsibility for ensuring their license/registry eligibility. If you have questions regarding your eligibility, contacy:
