Help too dumb to register for NCLEX part 2

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

OK Please help. I am having trouble figuing out how to register for NCLEX. I have no idea what I'm doing. I don't know why I can't figure this out. I live in Washington State. What do I do first????? it says I have to "Submit an application for licensure/registration to the nursing regulatory body (NRB) where you wish to be licensed/registered." How and where do I do this????? Do I have to be a member of the NRB site first. I look at their site and couldn't find an application area to fill out. Also Do I need to register for the DOH first. $120 dollars?????? or a license????? or do I fill out the Parsons Application $200 fee. I am so lost guys. I honestly don't get why I cant figure out what to fist, second, and third. I keep crying and feel so lost. Am I the only one struggling to figure this out? Or am I mentally defective?

Background and Fingerprint is a separate action item (but one item not two - you get fingerprinted and it triggers a background check to be started - you don't have to do anything extra for the background check). In my state it is through Identogo and my school provided me a code to give to them so my information would go straight to the BON.

The background checks are done through the school or can be done privately. Sometimes it is best to call the BON and ask for direction as to how to obtain the fingerprints. They would issue a code that is required for the NCLEX.

Before you start registering and going forward, have you studied for the NCLEX? Just make sure you study first before submitting all of these things so you don't lose time again.
