hi guys,

can anybody help me out?i took my nclex nyc last 2010...but unfortunately i did not pass and i was planning to retake it again this year.does anyone have any idea if I'am still eligible to take the exam after 3years or do i really need to contact the NYC BON to inquire weather I need to process all necessary requirements all over again?

:(

I think you have to process it because most ATTs are released for only a 3 month period. The longest an ATT could be is 1 year.

Check with NY BON but I believe eligibility is 5 years

Eligibility is the BON saying you meet requirements ATT is approval to sit NCLEX once. Then you have to apply for another ATT but eligibility will remain anywhere from 3-5 years is my understanding

@silverdragon is right. You're still eligible but you need the ATT from NYSED. You can contact them thru [email protected] for specific instructions. :)

Thank you very much guys for your help :)...I will try to reapply for an ATT. But can I still take the exam without limit as long as I am eligible within 3-5years? I already took the exam twice but failed and decided to take it again this year but I really forgot the whole processing thing =(

The contact info I gave you can answer your questions regarding the re-examination process. They answer promptly within their office hours. As for the eligibility, you are still eligible to take the NCLEX for New York state.

Thank you very much silverdragon102 and flamingwallflower for your help.The site was a big help.They replied to my email and said that I am still eligible and that my documents will not expire.And you were right guys, I just need to apply for an ATT and pay 200$ then contact them.:)
