Nevada will accept proof of pre-licensing education from accredited schools in states other than Nevada.  The courses need to be called 45-hours (or 3 credits) in principles and practices and 45-hours (or 3 credits) in real estate law and the student needs a transcript or certificate from the education.  If you have proof of both, and you are presently licensed in another state, you need to take 18-hours of Nevada Law.

If you are a California Salesperson, your Certified License History issued by the California DRE and sent to you will provide you with proof of your course work (order the extended version).  You need to take 18-hours of Nevada Law if you completed Legal Aspects or Real Estate Law as your elective when you applied for your California Real Estate License. If you did not complete Legal Aspects or Real Estate Law as your elective, you will need to enroll in 45-hours of Real Estate Law to apply for a Nevada Real Estate Sales License.

If you took a 90-hour pre-licensing course, and are presently licensed in another state, and want to apply for a Nevada salesperson's license;  You need to take 18-hours of Nevada Law. 

If you took 60-90 hours of pre-licensing in another state, and are presently licensed in another state, and want to apply for a Nevada salesperson's license, Nevada will give you credit for the 45-hour Principles and Practices portion of the Nevada requirement.  You need to take 45-hours of Real Estate Law (which includes 18-hours of Nevada Law).

If you took less than 60-hours of pre-licensing in another state, sorry, you need the whole 90-hour requirement, if you are presently licensed in another state.

If you completed real estate education but are not presently licensed in another state, you will also need to complete the 30-hour contracts and agency course that was added to make the Nevada real estate requirement 120-hours.

Real Estate Test: 

State-sponsored test scores are only good for one year only so applicants need to apply for their license within one year from passing the examination.  If an applicant has taken the examination in another state within the last year, the Nevada Real Estate Division will accept proof of the state-sponsored real estate exam for the national portion of the Nevada real estate exam.  The applicant will then only need to take the 40-questions state portion of the Nevada real estate examination.

If the applicant has not taken a real estate exam in another state, within 1 year of application, he/she needs to take the whole Nevada real estate exam which consists of 80-national questions and 40-state-specific questions (50 for a broker).  Your 'certified license history' signed/stamped by the licensing department of the state that you are currently licensed with will probably prove the test date - sent to you.

Jan 2019 Update: Presently the Real Estate Division is waiving the national portion of the real estate exam for applicants who hold a current, equivalent license in another state. For example, a California salesperson applying for a Nevada salesperson's license only needs to pass the state portion of the Nevada real estate exam. This could change at any time. It is mentioned on Nevada Form 501.
