  • Submit an online application with fees
    Verify original state licensure through nursys.com
  • Provide citizenship/lawful presence documentation
  • Graduated from a nursing program, obtained a degree, & practiced as a nurse for at least 960 hours within the past 5 years
  • Completed an Arizona Board-approved refresher course and obtained an advanced nursing degree in the past 5 years
