* Florida and New York will not accept NextGen transfer scores earned from any NextGen UBE administration before July 2028.
† Minnesota has not yet set their NextGen passing score, but the Court has indicated that those with a score of 620 or higher will not need to wait for the score to be set. Once Minnesota has established the score, all qualifying scores (including those obtained on the July 2026 exam) will be accepted.
‡ The Oregon Supreme Court ordered the pass score for the July 2026 NextGen UBE to be set at 615. The pass score for the NextGen UBE offered after July 2026 is set at 620.
§ Virginia will accept transferred NextGen UBE scores beginning in 2028 from any administration when NextGen was administered at a passing standard yet to be announced.
