NURSYS license verification instructions

Follow the directions to upload a .pdf of your license verification through NURSYS. 

Students licensed in Michigan should use these directions.

International students should include a copy of any foreign nursing licenses with their NURSYS report. To upload one comprehensive document, use a .pdf merger such as Smallpdf .

1. Go to the NURSYS website.
   1. Scroll down to the bottom and click “Look Up License” in the QuickConfirm License Verification section (see below).
      

   2. Read the Terms and Conditions and click “I agree.”
2. In the search box (see below), type in your last name and first name. Select your license type and one of the states where you are licensed. You do not need to repeat this process if you are licensed in multiple states or have multiple license types. Complete the security verification and then click “search.”
   

3. If multiple records appear, find your personal license result. Then click “View Report.” If only your record appears, click “View Report.”
   

4. On the next page click “Download report.”

   1. Choose Download full report and then click “Download” again (see below).

   1. If your licenses are not included in the report, include a .pdf of the verification report from the licensing state’s board of nursing website.
