Instructions on taking the Texas nursing jurisprudence examination: After you have filed an examination application with the Texas Board of Nursing 90 to 120 days prior to graduation, you will be provided a web address to access the jurisprudence examination. Follow the instructions to log on and complete the examination. The examination is based on the Texas Nursing Practice Act (NPA) and the Texas Board of Nursing Rules and Regulations. We recommend that you download a copy of the NPA and Board Rules and Regulations from our website by going to http://www.bon.state.tx.us/ and click on “Nursing Law and Rules”.

If you are not successful in passing the examination, you may take the examination again after seven working days have elapsed from the previous attempt. The cost of the examination is included in your $139 examination fee.
