Re: Maryland NCLEX

NCLEX is a national exam, it is not specific to any state. You must first apply for licensure to a state and get permission from the BON to be able to sit for the NCLEX exam.

Maryland has a language requirement before they will let you sit for the NCLEX exam.

Re: Maryland NCLEX

thanks suzanne for the info.... by the way, i'd like to ask if i had applied in another state for licensure, and if i'm going to have it endorsed after i pass, would they still require the language test requirement? Thanks a lot...

P.S. Please give me information on how to prepare for the NCLEX / CGFNS exams. Thanks again..

Re: Maryland NCLEX

It depends on the State BON or BRN. Only way to find out is to go directly to their website and see their instructions for foreign-educated nurses.

Also, an English exam, would still be needed to complete the Visa Screen Certification whether your State BON/BRN required it or not so a foreign-educated nurse would have to take an English exam one way or another.

We have an NCLEX discussion board in here, pls. check it out. www.allnurses.com/forums/f197.

Thanks.

Any language requirement would still be there to endorse. Preparation for the CGFNS exam is quite different from the NCLEX exam. And if they require the CES, you need to do that as well. Any requirements always remain, except for the CGFNS exam for a few states.

to be sure of the information you get , go directly to their website and browse the concerning queries you have in mind. one cannot be considered a usrn if no license is given , perhaps just an nclex-RN passer. just browse the thread regarding California , the answer to your question is stated there. good luck!

Re: Maryland NCLEX

There's nothing on their website that indicates you won't get a license, but to be 100% sure, suggest you email them.
It's also normally outlined in the application packets if there are restrictions.
