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.
