Check with your BON. In my state I couldn't sit for the boards until AFTER my graduation date, couldn't even schedule it. I had all my paperwork and prints sent in though so it was all ready at the BON when Excelsior sent my transcripts. I tested 3 weeks after my grad date.
As a side note, I took CPNE the 1st week in August and my grad date wasn't until beginning of October, and they weren't interested in how much of a pay raise I'd be getting, I had to wait the full time!
