consider applying NCLEX in nevada?

World Registration

Published

Hi I am graduate from Philippines, I recently applied in california NCLEX RN but unfortunately i was denied and BRN is requiring me to take OB and MS subjects again. I know this is issue also to other International grads applying nclex in Cali. I try to call in universities but they have limited slots for International grads. I am thinking of applying NCLEX in nevada. I saw intheir site that cgfns ces and english proficiency test is required for international grads. If i consider applying in nevada, is there a chance of getting my att easier than in cali? help please.

hey steppybay,

I was just wondering if you've applied for the board yet? I have a question. You know how there are steps we have to follow in applying and sending the requirements, do we have to follow the exact steps or can one requirement be first than the other. For example can the Nursing board receive my TOEFL results and CES even though they haven't received my application form yet. I've read somewhere that some steps can vary but some should be followed.

Haha, I wish I could apply for a board! But like so many, I'm one of the cases where I don't have a SSN, so it's study study for the NCLEX-RN exam while looking for a state without the SSN requirement.

I hope someone others can help better answer your other questions(s).

Hi andrea. basically were on the same page.... i got denied too to take the CA exam because of the "concurrent issue", was advised to take clinical and theory...

im debating where to take it.. 1.New york 2.Minnesota 3.Nevada... but since "steppybay" mention that her friend was denied then i guess i need too re-think again before i consider nevada. ..... cause i want to work in CA.

That narrows down my choices :)

I hope for the best to all of US!!! God Bless !!!

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Guys, please check with CA on endorsing license because I am sure you will still have the same issues because CA like to do their own assessment so the same paperwork will have to be submitted

If California did not accept the RN endorsement from Nevada, I'm pretty sure they will apply the same rule/decision to whatever state you are licensed. I know you all have a reason why you want to work and settle in California. But be open to other possibilities and do not focus on just one state.

I worked in the US before. My initial state of licensure was Oregon, then endorsed it to Kansas where I found a work. These two states are unpopular for Filipino grads but it sure gave me a lot opportunities and experience that I can't possibly get if I kept sticking myself to California where most of our relatives are.

Good luck everyone.

You should either call FL BON to verify or look at Licensure Information for Applicants Educated outside the US and in non-NCSBN Jurisdictions. #6 and #7 relates to English competency and then call FL BON if you have any addition questions.
