Applying for first RN lisence and taking NCLEX from out of state

Hello!

I am graduating this April, I have been hired in Wisconsin, and am set to start late September. I am a little confused at the process for getting an RN licence coming from out of state and I know that allnurses is extremely helpful for things like this :)

I'm little confused in general but heres some questions I have:

-I was told by my school counselors that they will need to fill out a form stating the curriculum but this is not mentioned for certain on start of form #3087

-Do I need to pay a fee to Pearson VUE for the test AND a fee to the Wisconsin Board of Nursing?

-I should be okay starting late September as an RN if I graduate at the end of April right? :)

-Any other pointers?

Thank you Allnurses, :)

    You can apply for licensure in any state- what the state requires will be up to the BON. Not familiar with Wisconsin, so I can't help you there.

    Yes, you will need to pay fees for both the state and for Pearson Vue. One is for licensure and the other is for the exam itself. The exam can be taken anywhere- it's the same test nationwide. What determines what state you get licensed in is what state you apply for.
