Incident Report for missed NCLEX exam

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I thought my NCLEX RN exam was scheduled for today but apparently it was yesterday. I am so disappointed in myself. According to the NCSBN a missed exam will result in an incident report which will be viewable by my board of nursing/regulatory body. What does that mean? Does that mean that once I get my license anyone who searches for my license can see it? Will potential future employers be able to see it?

Missing an Exam Appointment

If you fail to arrive for the exam appointment or fail to reschedule/unschedule without giving the appropriate notice, you will forfeit your exam fee (and scheduling fee if applicable) and your ATT will be invalidated. You will be required to reregister and pay another exam fee. Failure to take the exam will be noted in your registration as an incident report which will be viewable by your board of nursing/regulatory body.

Well, it says it will be viewable by your regulatory body. Although I am not sure, I don't think potential employers have access to that kind of information. Im sorry that you missed your exam :(

Be sure to do all of your due diligence the next time around. It sounds like you have to reapply and go through the application process all over again as well
