A virtual endomorphism of a group G is a homomorphism f : H→ G where H is a subgroup of G of finite index m . The triple (G,H,f) produces a state-closed (or, self-similar) representation φ of G on the 1 -rooted m -ary tree. This paper is a study of properties of the image G^φ when G is nilpotent. In particular, it is shown that if G is finitely generated, torsion-free and nilpotent then G^φ has solvability degree bounded above by the number of prime divisors of m .
