Quick THEA

Quick THEA is a THEA Test that is administered by a college on a flexible schedule--that is any time the college deems necessary.  This test costs the same as the regular THEA Test and is payable by check, money order or credit card when the test is taken.  There is no prior mail-in registration as with the regular THEA Test.  The Quick THEA Test may be taken once every 30 days. It will take approximately 8-10 days to receive all three scores.  The Quick THEA Tests offered by UNT are only available on the UNT campus.
