ATT - You must create a web account and register for the NCLEX-RN with Pearson Vue in order to receive an ATT. The ATT does not come from the state board of nursing but from Pearson Vue.

The exam registration and the license application to a state board of nursing are separate and distinct actions. They also have separate fees. Pearson Vue is a private company which has the contract to administer the exam for NCSBN, of which the state board is a member. The state board merely accepts application for a license by examination and declares the applicant eligible to sit for the NCLEX-RN based on submitted credentials.

Once you receive the ATT, schedule the exam through the Pearson Vue NCLEX Candidate website. The state board notifies Pearson Vue of your eligibility to sit for the exam. We recommend you register for the exam with Pearson Vue two weeks after sending your application to the state board of nursing. Click on the NCLEX-RN tab (scroll to bottom of page) to see a demo on how to create a web account and register for the exam with Pearson Vue.
