Based on licensing analyst?

You will not get eligibility to sit the exam until you have met requirements. Things do change so a lot will depend when your school colleagues applied and you applied. If at the same time would suggest you contact the BON/BRN and ask them

yes. same thing happened to me, who was your analyst?

my analyst is ********.. what will i do? is there a solution to this problem? it's just so unfair!!

we have the same analyst. She is really strict. Before, I can help you.What school are you from? and what year did you graduate?

Just graduated last April from Angeles University Foundation, Philippines.. Help Me!!!!

Please do not post contact names as per the Terms of Service of the site

Okay, we have the same analyst. 2 other poeple had the same problem who got it resolved with that analyst and so far, you and another one person in this site has the same problem too.

So far, I think we have the same curriculum because I graduated from the same batch.

First, do not enroll in a college, that should be your last resort unless everything fails. I was hopeless too because she kept on saying no and won't even tell me what I lack.

The best thing that you can do is to know if anybody in your school was made eligible that would be your leverage. Because that was what I did, my schoolmates had been eligible and I was denied, until a classmate of mine, same school and same clinical rotation got eligible. I called the license anlayst and told her about it, gave her the name, she checked it and said okay I'm good.

Her reason to me was as I remember but not sure about the words "I didn't know that the Philippines has a different curriculum than California, I was basing it in the California educational requirements, it was just now that I was updated. I'm sorry for the hassle and I will be sending your eligibility letter soon." And one week later, I was eligible. A lot of people actually had a problem with that analyst and ended up enrolling in a school. After what happened to me, I told all my schoolmates about it, and they called in and they were made eligible too.

I thought after that incident, *knowing that now she is updated with the difference of the educational requirements for the philippines and california* it will be okay for the others too. But it looks like I was wrong.

Really, it can be very frustrating if that is the case. I'm from the same school as eats and I haven't heard anyone who has received eligibility yet from my batch. Hopefully, someone would get lucky, me for one would appreciate it. Though, going back to school just to see how classes in California's nursing program is conducted could be an interesting experience. So there's Cerritos and Grossmont in San Diego that offers it. Has anyone here taken the Option F in Cerritos? When are the prereqs and Psychiatric nursing conducted, Spring/Fall?

@eatd

I have the direct line for the analyst. that's where I call her. Email me at [email protected] ill send it to you for you to be able to talk to her directly.

Always remember guys, you have finished a four year course in Nursing, and I'll mention again, some analysts are not updated yet about the difference of the California curriculum with foreign countries. They're not supposed to evaluate your education using the California curriculum.

Do not give up. Do not enroll in a college and study for 1 year just for the deficiency. Because I myself was in the situation and fought for my right to be eligible without needing to enroll to nursing school here in the US.

You just have to ask the right questions and clarfiy things with your evaluator, ask her about what you lack, and always be respectful when you talk to your analyst. Do not act all knowing but make sure that you get to your point.

Remember, my fellow Filipinos. If your college is indeed accredited, then our nursing curriculums are all the same. It is mandated by the BON and CHED. So whatever I studied, whatever other filipinos took to become eligible, is what you also took.

So you are eligible, the same way I am and the others are..

I think you are wrong, the board of any nursing, is suppose to evaluate any curriculum against the state standards. It is fair and the only way to protect the public.

What is not fair is that one gets approved and a classmate doesn't.

@ginger's mom: I understand where you are coming from, it is only just that foreign graduates adhere to the state's policies and standards in regards with the nursing education taken.

I am speaking in behalf of my own experience and those of others that have encountered the same problem. In order to be an accredited nursing school in the Philippines you have to follow a mandated curriculum given by the Philippine BON approved by CHED. So what I am trying to say is if a Philippine nursing graduate becomes eligible, the others should have the same fate because they were studying the same subjects and took the same number of clinical hours most especially if they came from the same school.

I would just like to clarify what I said about the difference in evaluation. I asked my evaluator why they're having conflicts with the evaluation, this is the gist of why there is a problem with our psych hours, (Psychiatric nursing in the Philippines has a different approach, clinical exposure is mostly emphasized during the senior year but what is not clearly stated in the transcripts is it is also incorporated in other clinical exposures during second year and third year, particularly in NCM 101 (growth and development).

This is the part where my evaluator said that she is NOT updated about. So there's also a possibility that the other evaluators are not updated yet. And she has only known this after she talked to another evaluator who made a Filipino student eligible and asked why.

Once again, my posts are simply my opinions, pieces of advice I would like to share because I have been in the same situation. And to be told that you are ineligible by one person while the others are made eligible is just really frustrating. Others opted to give up easily and enroll only to find out that they were actually eligible and can no longer get the tuition fee refund from the college they enrolled in.

It is always up to the reader if they choose to follow the advice written here, this is a forum and we are just speaking our minds. I will not benefit anything here. We have choices, you (reader) chose to read this. And it is also your choice if you follow what it says. :)
