Hi, Sorry for the late response. I haven't been on this website for a while. I am in the process of preparing to take my NCLEX again. After so many years. But I have faith that I will pass. I registered with the Board of Nursing in Wisconsin. They do not have cap on the amount of time you have been out of school. I can take the test in IL for Wisconsin. I am just taking it one step at a time. My main goal right now is to get my license. And I will handle the rest as it comes as far as transferring it to another state.

Yes, I am in the process of getting ready to take my Nclex in Wisconsin. They do not have a cap on how long you have been out of school. But I have until April 2014 to register to take my test or I will have to pay the fees all over again. Sorry for the late response. I haven't been on this web site in a while.

Thanks for the response. I am located in illinois. I graduated in 2007. I will look into other states to see if the same guildelines apply.

Don't make this mistake:confused:!!! I put through my application to take the Nclex. I took the test several times and failed. I was so dissappointed I did not take the test again for a year of so. I finally decided to take my test again in April. I sent my money into continental testing and pearson vue. I found out at that time that my application had expired in February. There was no refund for my money. I only had three years to take my nclex or my application would expire. This change went into effect around 2007. Now I am required to go back to school to show 2 additional years of nursing school before I am eligible to take the nclex again. FASA will not pay for me to retake my nursing classes because I would be auditing. Grants do not pay for Auditing classes. I cannot get into a BSN program because I never received my license. I am at a dead end. Any suggestions. Frustrated and really disappointed in myself for not persuing my life long dream.
