Alberta RN wanting to write NCLEX

Published

Hello,

I am an Alberta RN and have been registered for almost 5 years now. I wrote the CRNE when I was finished my nursing program and now I am interested in writing the NCLEX. I have contacted CARNA and they told me that I will have to apply through a board in the United States. Has anyone wrote the NCLEX exam being already registered previously? If anyone has any advice about the application process, how to apply, and who to apply through it would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you in advance!!

Moved to the Nurse a Registration forum.

Suggest checking out the state you plan on living and working in and see what the requirements are for IEN. Only once you have met requirements will you receive eligibility to sit NCLEX
