NCLEX retake cost?

Updated:   Published

Hello everyone. My wife was refused to take the NCLEX a week ago because she didn't sign her passport... I hate her :angryfire Anyways, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how much the cost will be. It was her first time to take the exam. I checked with CA board and they said we don't have to pay anything for the first try and we only have to pay 200$ for the ATT and 150$ to take the test outside the country.

But some people are telling me that I only have to pay 75$ for the retest. Can anyone tell me which is which and how I should go about this. Thank you

If she still has her ATT and hasn't expired then it should just be a case of re booking the exam and pay Pearsonvue their fees.

I called pearsonvue and they said that I have to pay 200$ for a new ATT and wait 45 days before she can retake the exam and another 150$ to take the exam outside the US. Is this correct? can anyone verify. The previous ATT is still valid tho.

How do I reapply to take the NCLEX-RN examination?

To retake the NCLEX-RN Examination, you must submit to the Board a completed Request for Reapply/Repeat Examination form along with the reapplication fee of $75. When the Board issues a notice of failing result, the Request for Reapply/Repeat Examination form is provided to the candidate.

This form may also be downloaded from the Board’s Web site at http://www.rn.ca.gov/lic/reapply.htm.

Please note that you must also register again with the Pearson VUE testing service, and pay the $200 registration fee.

All in all you'll pay : $75 for the reapplication form, $200 for the exam, $150 for the location outside the U.S.
