Could I schedule my NCLEX exam now that I received my ATT ?

I just want to make sure I don't make any mistakes. Just got my ATT through my email, and also got the Acknowledgement of receipt of registration from Pearson.

But on the NCSBN website it also said that I should also receive an Eligibility letter from the Board of Nursing. And that I shouldn't schedule my exam yet unless I get these three.

Does the eligibility letter come in regular mail of through email too? And how long does it usually take?

I hope I'm not missing anything because I know I paid $91 online at Continental Testing, then the $200 on the Pearson website, and mailed fingerprint receipt. Any clarification is much appreciated. Thank you!!

As far as I know, the ATT is proof that the BON has all of your information. You should be able to schedule. I would just go ahead and try; if anything is amiss you won't be able to schedule. Best of luck to you!

I scheduled my NCLEX the day after I got my ATT. I forgot about the eligibility letter until I got in the mail...the day before I took my test Once I got it, it seemed to be more for work purposes (like informing you/your employer of your GN status because you aren't officially a GN until you get that letter) than for scheduling the test.

Thanks! I kinda even thought the ATT was the ultimate proof of eligibility

But anyway I'm going to schedule my test since they will just need the ATT and proof of identity on the exam date. Thanks again you guys!

I just took the NCLEX a few days ago. All you need is the ATT to register. Good luck!!!!!!!!!
