Hi everyone!
I posted a similar thread to this awhile ago, but I didn't really find the answers I needed. I think that part of the reason though is because I didn't ask my questions the right way either.
I sent the following questions to the california board of nursing and got no response (not really suprised). Can you help me please?!?!
I am currently a NJ resident going to school in NJ. I graduate my RN program in June 2010.
I am trying to move to California after I graduate. I would like to be licensed in both California and NJ. I do not know what the best way to go about doing this is.
Should I sit for the NCLEX in NJ and then apply for a temporary License in California, and then a permanent one in California?
Can I sit for the NCLEX in NJ but get a license in both states? Should I sit for the NCLEX in California and apply for one for NJ somehow?
Also, can a new grad accept work in California before they sit for the NCLEX?
Last, how many days after graduation must a new grad wait to sit for the NCLEX in California?
Thank you for your time!!
