Admission Policy
NCLEX EXAMINATION CONFIDENTIALITY
Candidates should be aware and understand that the disclosure of any examination materials including the nature or
content of examination items, before, during, or after the examination is a violation of law. Candidates may not
reconstruct exam items using their memory of the exam or the memory of others. Candidates may not copy or
reconstruct exam items during or following their exam for any reason. A violation of this can result in criminal
prosecution or civil liability and/or disciplinary actions by the licensing agency including the denial of licensure.
NOTE: NCSBN and your Board of Nursing/Regulatory Body (BON/RB) strongly discourage bringing ANY electronic
devices to the test center. According to NCSBN's Candidate Rules Agreement which you will sign, candidates are
prohibited from accessing ANY electronic devices while at the test center and you may face disciplinary action from your
BON/RB.
ACCEPTABLE IDENTIFICATION
When you arrive at the test center, you will be required to present one form of acceptable identication. Your
identication must match exactly the rst and last names you provided when registering. If your acceptable ID does not
match exactly the rst and last names you registered with you will be turned away and required to reregister and pay
another examination fee. If you paid the additional international scheduling fee, that will be forfeited as well.
All forms of identication must be valid and meet the following requirements. If the ID does not meet these
requirements, you will be turned away and required to reregister and pay another examination fee:

Government-issued

If your ID does not contain a signature but meets all other ID requirements listed above you must bring in a secondary form of
identication to the test center. The signature on your secondary ID must match exactly with the rst and last name on your
primary ID and with the names that you provided when you registered. The secondary identication must contain:

Signature (in Roman characters)

centers are those within Canadian provinces/territories and the mainland U.S. (not including territories). All other test centers
