How long does it take to get my OK real estate license?

Every person will earn their license in a different amount of time, but we have estimated potential timeline for obtaining your Oklahoma real estate salesperson license:

Step 1: Complete the required 90-hour Oklahoma Pre-License course.

  • The fastest way to meet your education requirement is with an online course.
  • Online courses can be done at your pace and fit into your schedule.
  • Estimate anywhere from 2-4 weeks, depending on how fast you work through the course online.

Step 2: Apply for your provisional salesperson license.

  • The online portal is quick and easy. You can apply within a day after passing your education course.

Step 3: Schedule your background check.

Step 4: Schedule and take the state exam.

  • The OREC will notify you within five business days of submitting your provisional application.
  • PSI will contact you via email with 48 hours of approval with a link to schedule the exam. You can schedule your exam by calling 855-746-8169.

Step 5: Apply for your license.
