I have noticed that a lot of new nursing graduates ask the question,"Where should I take my NCLEX exam?". Here is the answer. I took this information directly from the National Council Of The State Boards Of Nursing website (the organization that administers the NCLEX).
The NCLEX can be taken in any state convenient to you. The results will be directed to the board of nursing where you applied for your authorization to test (ATT) and licensure. If you are seeking a multi-state license and reside in a compact state, you should apply for a license in the state where you intend to legally reside and/or practice.
