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 ask them last week I think. They said they're still processing october 14 appilcations.

Hi guys! I graduated BSN on 2010 in the phils as a korean. i couldnt take board because i'm foreigner, and i was applying for NCLEX CA since last MAY. and i got a letter from BRN, I need to submit 5 major, minor, cord care and dr room care etc. (clinical cases) which i've lost.....

I found a files in my usb, i gave it to my relatives to submit to school, but they need signature from cis. but some are not there anymore.

I talked to dean, she is keep saying that i need to go to school or get the signatures from cis who is not there anymore (or die whoever know-_-) and she is keep asking me she need to original copy to compare (if i have original, why am i begging her something?!)

I dont know what to do right now.... please recommend something to me T_T my visa will expire on Oct. this year.....

You can try to apply to a different state. As for CA schools, there is a lot of talk, but nothing official yet.

Keep pestering the Dean for your records.

Good luck!

I am a foreigner too that went to nursing school in the Philippines. But I have all my cases and my school sent all of them to Cali BRN, but still, Cali BRN asked me to REtake psychiatric nursing. So in the meantime, I am waiting for the eligibility letter from lvn so that I can take the lvn state board.

For your situation, I am really sure you don't wanna go all the way to Philippines only to ask all of their signatures. Have your former classmate or clinical groupmate that can do it for you. Because for myself too, I had my classmate to do it for me and following up to the school because for most of the school in the Philippines, in order to make it quick, you have to give something like a gift or extra money to the registrar or even the dean of nursing (since they always think foreigner have a lot of money) And of course I don't wanna do it simply because I don't have a lot of money! So have somebody (not your relatives) but your classmate that you can trust to do it for you! If you don't have anybody, then my suggestion would be to try to ask board rn to transfer your files to board lvn and taking the board lvn like me soon. Good luck!

Hi there, have you fixed your application already for California?? Im on the process of applying also.. I wonder if they really need all those requirements.. thank you!!

Does not matter if you are an RN from another country or a different state. Each state has their own requirements and educational requirements you have to fulfill in order to either sit for the NCLEX exam for that state (Licensure by Examination) or to endorse your RN license from a different state over.

If you want to be an RN in CA, you will have to fulfill CA's requirements.

Good luck!

Looks like everything will be complicated for me. Thanks a lot dear!! Need to work on it.

I'd say try it out for yourself but since last year there were a lot of Philippines graduates that got denied and had to retake some of medsurg or psych or OB class. So yeah, go apply to Cali and see what they will do for you! Good luck!

Just know that any and all fees submitted to the CA BON (the same goes to any other State's BON), the monies sent are not refundable, even if one is denied.
