Hello! I had 2 quick questions. How soon after you graduated did it take you you to receive the okay to take the NCLEX? Also, how soon can you take the NCLEX when you go to sign up? Thank you!!

My diploma date was April 16, I got my ATT April 26 (scheduled my test that night), and took the NCLEX May 10. Once you get the ATT you can schedule your test as soon as you want, depending on the days available.

It depends on how long it takes your school to send your graduation affidavit and then how long it takes the board to process it and send the info to Pearson Vue. I graduated the 15th (grades were in the 12th) and they said they would send them on or before the 18th but they still haven't so I'm not sure for when they will unfortunately.

I graduated Dec 18. Got my ATT on either the 30th or 31st, and took NCLEX Jan 4. It can be quick! People cancel all the time. If you want to test sooner you can always fill a spot that someone cancelled.
So the board finally received my graduation affidavit May 31st and I finally received my ATT today! The available dates at the location I picked were the 13, 22, and 29th for this month.
