How long to get ATT?

I just graduated last Saturday 12/16. I was wondering about how long it takes to get the ATT?

Thanks! I'm driving myself nuts waiting on the results, lol!

who send ATT to you your school or board of nursing?

Specializes in Case mgmt., rehab, (CRRN), LTC & psych.

Keep in mind that I was in California, which takes the longest to process paperwork and send out ATTs.

I graduated on October 14 and received my ATT via U.S. mail on November 21 (approximately 5 weeks after completion of school).

Neither the school nor the board of nursing sends the ATT. It is Pearson Vue who is solely responsible for sending out the ATTs. Pearson Vue is the testing company who administers the NCLEX.

The way it works here (and I think many places) is this. Your school has to send out certificates of completion to the BON, stating that you have successfully completed their program. The BON then contact PearsonVue and they (PearsonVue) send you the ATT. In order to receive an ATT you must have had your fingerprint/background check, BON app turned in, PearsonVue registration, and the certificate of completion. I graduated the Saturday before Thanksgiving and received my ATT on the Wed after Thanksgiving.

so i have to pay my 200 dollars nclex fee before i get my att. i paid my bon fee. i thought once i got my att than i have to pay 200 nclex fee
