How We Calculate Costs
Our calculator uses official licensing fee data from state regulatory boards and agencies. The base cost includes:
- Pre-license education — Tuition for required coursework (state-approved schools)
- Application fee — Filed with the state licensing board
- Exam fee — Registration for the state or national licensing exam
Optional extras cover common additional expenses that vary based on your situation. All costs are estimates based on current published fee schedules and may vary by provider.
