Please help- need license soon!

I passed my NCLEX (took it July 5th)! And have a job lined up too! However, I need my license by July 23rd for my job to still be valid. Is there any way for me to hurry up the licensing process (ex. alert them that it's for a job, call them, ect). Any advice would really help.

thank you

You'd have to check with the specific BON you're trying to get licensed through. They're all different.

I've never heard of any BON speeding up their process(es) because someone had a job offer, though. Some will issue temporary licenses under some circumstances.

Some employers will delay your start date if you're not licensed on time. It could be a full month, but it's worth looking into.

Good luck!
