Does anyone know what the free site is to look up a new license or to see if passed the NCLEX?

Just go to the Mass board of nursing site and plug in your details!

Most, if not all, states have license verification links on their Board websites.

Does anyone know how quickly this is updated?
Some of my friends had their licenses posted before they even found out their official NCLEX results. My license wasn't posted until 5 days after I got my results, and it was updated on a federal holiday (July 4). I'm not sure if the BON just took 5 days to update or if Pearson Vue took 5 days to get my results to them.

I have been told within 3 days of passing you will have your license number on the site; however, I have also heard it can take up to a week. I think it also depends on if you took your exam toward the weekend, or on the beginning of the week, etc.
Then again, I'm taking mine on Monday so I don't know for sure myself! =)
I'm taking mine tomorrow and I'm very bad at waiting. I'm hoping that there will be a faster way to know than waiting for the license to be posted
All of us nurses have been there! Unfortunately, you just have to wait the 48 hours to find out from Pearson Vue. It's torture, but you WILL live!
Good luck on your NCLEX!

Don't forget to use the PearsonVue trick( Do a search on here to find out how). I have never known it not to be accurate for most!
