Visions to Host ASVAB Exam on April 19

The ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery)  is a multiple-aptitude battery that measures developed abilities and helps students learn more about career exploration and planning, in both the civilian and military worlds of work. It is administered annually to more than one million military applicants, high school, and post-secondary students.

The test time will be from 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm in the PDC. A list of students who have expressed interest has been started.

If you are interested, please send me an email.
