You can usually check your license status online through the Board&#8217;s website.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tennessee_Nursing_Board_Licensure_Time_Frame\"><\/span><b>Tennessee Nursing Board Licensure Time Frame<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once all the necessary documents and materials have been received, it typically takes about six weeks to process your license. This time frame allows for the thorough review and processing of your application and any other required items.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To keep things easier, you should submit your paperwork correctly and ensure you\u2019re eligible for the license you\u2019re applying for. By doing so, you can expect to get your license without any delay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cost_of_Tennessee_Nursing_Board_License\"><\/span><b>Cost of Tennessee Nursing Board License<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For first-time nurses taking their licensing exam, there&#8217;s a fee of $200 to take the NCLEX exam, which is required for your license.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you&#8217;re a nurse who already has an RN license and you&#8217;re applying for licensure in a new area through endorsement, the fees are a bit different. The application fee for RNs and LPNs is $115.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), you&#8217;ll also need to pay $25 for license verifications. The criminal background check fee of $33.15 applies here as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes time to renew your license, there are fees for that too. RNs and LPNs have to pay $100 to renew their licenses. APRNs have a slightly higher fee of $110 for renewal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tennessee_Board_of_Nursing_License_Renewal\"><\/span><b>Tennessee Board of Nursing License Renewal<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18297\" src=\"http:\/\/hc.heartbeat.ai\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Tennessee-Board-of-Nursing-License-Renewal.png.webp\" alt=\"Tennessee Board of Nursing License Renewal\" width=\"1024\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Renewing your TN Board of Nursing license is a crucial step to maintain your eligibility to practice within the state.
