I think for these types of questions, you should just call the Nevada State Board of Nursing. It is really not that difficult. I will even give you the telephone number: 1-888-590-6726. It's a toll free call.

What about those foreign graduates who were already here? Do they have to go through the process of obtaining the TOEFL/IELTS and CGFNS certificate? Do you have any info about this? Thanks again!

If you look at the website, it states that they will let you know if you need the CES report, chances are that you do not since you will be endorsing, and not going for initial licensure. You need to contact them anyhow just for the application packet, it is not available on-line.

CGFNS exam with Certificate is completely different from the CES, which is simply a credentials verification. When you got initially licensed in the US, where were you licensed at?

Default Problems with NV license
Sorry to cross-post, but since this is related to NV and licensing i'll post here too. I just got a denial for LPN licensure in NV by the board. I'm army trained and have been licensed in NC (Never practiced there) RI and MA. I applied by endorsement and they are stating that my nursing program isn't accredited. And better yet, how do I get this list of accredited programs from them? Sorry I'm frustrated because I've never had a state turn me down and I have plans to move there. I have no other issues/discipline on my record.

Nancy
