Candidates Outside the United States
Candidates Outside the US and Canada - International Testing
In 2025, ONCC will offer examinations at test sites in many countries outside the US, its territories, and Canada. Testing at these sites will be available June 1 - 30, 2025 only. The deadline to apply to test outside the US/Canada is March 1, 2025.
To apply, you must fax a paper application form, including credit card information for payment. Please fax your CE documentation with the application form.
In addition, if you received your nursing education or nursing license outside of the United States, its territories, or Canada you must have your education and licensure evaluated for U.S. equivalency by a foreign credential evaluation service. Your certification application will not be reviewed or approved until the credential evaluation is received.
Authorizations to Test for international test site candidates will be released beginning April 1, 2025.
