NCLEX fee is $200 to take in US. Extra fees to take exam outside US plus any fees or required credential evaluations assessed by the board of nursing you apply to for a nursing license by examination. You cannot just register for NCLEX you must apply to a state board of nursing for a license by examination and be authorized to take the NCLEX.

Roughly $400. It's $200 for the actual test to Pearson Vue and about another $200(+/-) to your BON for license processing fee etc.

The total cost is a little different per state but the BON is $75, the FBI check is $60, then the nclex is $200..so about $335. There are steps you have to do in Ohio. But you can start the process by sending the application fee $75 to the BON first, your school will forward the education to them. Then the FBI check$60 will also before to forward to BON...then finally you have to pay for the nclex test it's $200. While all that is going on ...and if everything is great about 2 to 4 weeks they will send your ATT# in your email.

The licensing fees vary by state. Some states it's $200 + $75 for background check then $200 for NCLEX.

Aside from $209 for NCLEX you need up check with your state board of nursing regarding other fees
