Hi, Yes I was able to endorse my license to NJBON. But it took 3-4 months because I had to do CES as the initial process for license. Good luck to you!!

What state did you endorse from? And when did you endorse your license? Are you foreign graduate? Thank you

I just wanted to clarify. So IEN does not need to pass an English proficiency test for endorsement to NJ? Just the CGFNS CES? Thank you.

As per the BON website

International RNs

Internationally educated nurses have two preliminary steps before they complete the application, do the criminal background check, and take the NCLEX. They must have their coursework evaluated by the Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS). They will also need to take an English proficiency exam, and have scores sent to the CGFNS.

There is a total of $225 due to the New Jersey Board by international candidates who are applying for license by examination.

Thanks for the reply silverdragon! I Have read the information on their website but I did not see any specific instruction for “endorsement” in regards to international educated nurses. They do state CGFNS and an English exam is required for applying for license by “examination”. I just wonder if that holds true with endorsement as well.


thank you
