CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

World Registration

Published

I had already registered online in Pearson Vue but I think I'm not yet eligible to take the test. Is there an expiration date for my registration at PV?

I received a letter from CA BON requesting for new requirements such as:

  1. SS number
  2. Local license in the Philippines
  3. Copy of ur clinical rotation schedule for your cases: Assisted/Actual deliveries, cord dressing, and major/minor surgeries
  4. A complete school curriculum hundred pages or more sent directly from ur nursing school to the board. (the board doesn't accept the condensed version of the curriculum
  5. A one-page curriculum outline and academic calendar.

Fortunately, I had the first 2 requirements but I am worried that the last 3 will take time to be accomplished.

I am wondering if it's just me who have this requirement. Most of NCLEX passers I know weren't required on those listed above. It's really hard to focus on review while your thinking of this :uhoh3:

I know someone who got her eligibility last year december without requiring her to submit any additional requirements including the clinical cases, rotation schedule, etc. Very confusing.

kabayan you dont need to, if you download the application online,no need to submit the postcard.But if the board sent you an application packet,then you send a postcard together with your application.

I'm wondering if we can send the nursing program copy from the BRN to BVNPT instead of the nursing program copy found in the BVNPT instructions page 8 and 9.

@mjhay I'm still waiting for the nursing program from our school. Hope bvnpt won't require us new requirement too.

@ retetestis i was thinking that also, cause my analyst just did reply on my email last time stating that "If you would like a copy of your school records sent to the LVN Board, please send me a written request by mail with your signature. ", and i was planning to do that too, at the same time i'll send the TOR and nursing program from my school to the BVN... i don't know if it'll works though, am afraid it'll messed up if i gonna used them both....

Ask your analyst from the BRN or send them a request letter with a $30 fee money order or check to transfer a copy of your documents to the BVNPT,and i think you dont need to submit your transcript and the record of nursing program.That's what my friend told me b/c she did the same thing when she was applying for LVN.
