Utah Nursing License

The Utah Board of Nursing will have all of the information that you need to get on your way to practicing in Utah. New graduates will have a different process than RNs who already hold an active state license.

Applying for the NCLEX - Initial Licensure as a Nurse in Utah - 2 Step Process

  1. Take and Pass the NCLEX
  2. Apply for Licensure with the Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing (DOPL)


Important things to keep in mind:

  • Utah is a member of the enhanced Nurse Licensure Compact (eNLC)
  • Apply for your license AFTER passing NCLEX and pay - $95.00 (online or manual form).
  • Complete your fingerprints at DOPL or at your local police department (mail to DOPL). You will see your license number on DOPL’s website the day after it’s active.
  • It can take 14 business days to issue a complete application.
  • You will receive a hard copy of your license in the mail within 10 business days.

Overview of the Endorsement process for a Utah nursing license:
