Where to take the NCLEX
The official list of international NCLEX test centers (October 2026) does not include a center in Ghana. Check the current list for the nearest location before you schedule. Official list
International test centers accept only a passport as ID, and an international scheduling fee applies. See our step-by-step guide for internationally educated nurses.
The NCLEX registration fee rises from $200 to $350 for registrations from Feb 1, 2027.
The fee depends on the date you register, not the date of your exam. Source: NCSBN
