I just wanted to post something here in case other people ran into this problem.

If you’re an exam candidate in certain NASBA states, and you pass your last part, NASBA does not provide your scores to your State Board until the month following the end of the window. Using myself as an example, I took my last exam April 19 and got my score May 3. NASBA is not going to notify my State Board until JULY 1!!!!!

Thankfully I’m not going to be penalized at work for NASBA being slow (I was supposed to have my license by July 1), but I just don’t get it. We pay all this money, and then have to wait forever for them to do anything. I don’t understand why they can’t notify State Boards each time there is a score release wave.

Just wanted to put this out there in case someone else runs into the same situation. If you have an inflexible deadline to get your license, be sure to account for this extra time required for NASBA to tell your State Board that you passed.

Also, this doesn’t affect all NASBA states – but CT is one that it does apply to.

License was approved 7/1 – the same day NASBA provided my scores to the CT BOA. Finally!!! Just waiting on my paper certificate now!
