Nursing (Registered Nurse)

Professional Licensure Disclosure

To be licensed as a Registered Nurse in Tennessee students must graduate from a Tennessee Board of Nursing approved Nursing program and pass the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) Registered Nurse (RN) exam. The NCSBN administers these examinations on behalf of its member boards, which consist of the boards of nursing in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and four U.S. territories, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The NCSBN does not administer licensure examination in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and Republic of Palau, and therefore graduates are ineligible for licensure in these Freely Associated States.

In addition, Tennessee RN licensure requires applicants to meet requirements related to legal residency and criminal history. Information about these requirements may be found at

The NCSBN National Licensure Compact (NLC) is a licensure reciprocity agreement that may be legislatively implemented at the state or territorial level. Information about the NLC may be found at

Information about Tennessee鈥檚 implementation of the NLC legislation can be found at

Students who meet Tennessee RN licensure requirements are also eligible for licensure in any other states or territories that have fully enacted NLC legislation. States that have not fully enacted this legislation may have additional requirements to be eligible for licensure, including but not limited to:

-Requirements for residency or citizenship.

-Requirements for additional coursework, workshops or Continuing Education Units related to local pharmaceutical, mandated reporting, or other laws.

Students seeking licensure in any non-NLC state should contact the licensure agency for that territory to determine what additional requirements may be in place for licensure.
