How long does it take to get your license in the mail in PA?

Published

I just took my test on Tuesday and my name was on the state board of nursing website Wednesday morning saying my license was issued. I am just wondering if anyone knows how long it will take for my license to come in the mail? I am so anxious to start putting applications in!

Prospective employers can, and do, verify your license online, as well as by phone, or fax, so don't let not having your physical license stop you from getting started.

All of the above is true.....just wanted to let you know I'm in PA and it took a little under 2 weeks to get the actual license.

Thank you, I just wanted to know because one of the places I want to apply at wants me to include a copy of my license with my application. Hopefully it comes this week!
