Retaking NCLEX

A little backstory.

I graduated with my ASN in May 2007 and passed NCLEX the first time in July 2007.

Due to a variety of reasons (moving, having babies, moving again) I've not worked and therefore, have not gotten any experience.

My license is current where I originally was licensed and I hold a current license where I am now living.

The hiccup that I am running into, as we prepare to move again, is that some states BON won't issue a license by endorsement because I a) it will have been over 4 years since passing NCLEX and b) I have not gained any experience/accrued any work hours.

I will be graduating with my BSN in December.

Once we get to where we are going, can I just take the NCLEX again? Otherwise, seems like I've put a lot of time, energy, and money into a nursing career that I can't get off the ground.

Thanks!

    you will need to contact the BON of the state where you will be working. They may require refresher courses. I doubt you are eligbile for NCLEX but, again, the BON is your best source.

    Call the BON, i believe since you are graduating with your BSN (if its in-class and not online), you do not need to retake the NCLEX. Call and talk with someone that works there or go in person
