Hello..I just want you to share my situation right now. I just graduated my BSN from the philippines this april 2011. i am already here in ontario as an immigrant. Currently I am just waiting for my credentials to be sent to me from the philippines as some of it should be passed along with the application forms which I requested from CNO. I'm having a hard time thinking of what position to apply for my asessment: RN or RPN? I'm worried that if I apply for RN they will not recognize my BSN and tell me to study from the start all over again as I dont have my philippine nursing license..so Im planning to apply for RPN. which is better..?
and will the CNO require me of philippine nursing license? i'd still don't know what to do next- do I still need to take the local NLE?
Some people tell me I don't need it while may aunt in the US told me that I need it to have NCLEX someday and work there??.
I'll appreciate all your comments regarding this.thank you so much.:)
