Massachusetts NCLEX results

Updated:   Published

I take my NCLEX tomorrow and am wondering how long it takes for your license to pop up on the mass.gov site? I went to school in RI and know they can see their license on the website (department of health) in less than 24 hours, as short as 4 hours, after finishing the exam. Wondering if Mass is as efficient in uploading licenses as RI is. Thanks!

Just wanted to post an update for future nurses who take the NCLEX for a Mass license. I took my exam on a Tuesday, got my quick results on Thursday, and my license was posted on the mass.gov website that Friday!

I personally did not use the PVT, I had heard that Pearson caught on and it was not as reliable. Not to mention what an awful way to find out you failed than being charged $250+ haha. I chose to wait! Seems like people have had success with it, so it seems like a viable option still!

Congratulations!

Can you please tell me how you found your license on the mass.gov website? I have my quick results, but will like to see my license number

Check a nursing license | Mass.gov

FYI: They do not send a paper license as of October of 2017, so this is it!

Congratulations!!

Do you think the quick results can be wrong? I took my nclex on Feb 6 and it is not Feb 17 and still no licence number on website. Everyone I have spoke with says theirs was posted in a week. I am super stressed and dont know what to do. Any ideas ???

I do not think quick results are wrong. (Not saying that it can't happen but it is very doubtful) I remember it took a few weeks for mine to appear on the Board of Registration. As long as you have confirmation that you passed (quick results I believe were 2-3 days if I remember correctly) you should be all set.

Congratulations!!
