CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

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:

Well I read like the 2 first page previous threads. Long stories. Sad to say I hope I can still take the nclex considering I too have a slight wrinkle with my cases not being concurrent. Lots of ideas ran thru my mind, like what do I do? Where will I work? I'll have to further investigate to figure out this rough obstacle. God bless to all.

Btw does the cases apply to Filipino local citizenships or U.S citizens? Or all of the above? Was this law recently changed when? Thank u in advance for the replies.

It's just an enforcement of the existing CA BON rule that has been their written policy for years.

This is a pretty good observation from this person: https://allnurses.com/international-nursing/who-blame-ca-682278.html

@ che guapa...PRC will just keep our records for atleast a year,I just read it in some post here and said instead of contacting them our school should be the one to provide it for us.tell ur school kababayan its their obligation to provide all the docs.that CABON is asking.

I really hope that the school still kept my DR & OR cases. Regarding the new curriculum.. I graduated last 2005, and there was still AHSE by that time. Am I not meeting the standard? because I thought its just about being concurrent to the cases and theories?

I really hope they would a little understanding if I met my cases, 1 semester late.

Hi kabayan,me too batch 2005..took nclex july last yr and failed...reapplied again and still waiting.Actually I still dont know if they received a copy of my cases(as my school told me they send it already) because it took a long time for my school to find the copy of my cases they even asked me wheres my own copy and I told them I dint have any and its their responsibilities to provide any documents that I need.

I dont know what new curriculum you are saying but the CABON problem is all about the concurrecny issue.

from what I read and people told me if the cases are not concurrent at all, u will not be eligible at all. I got a letter from them asking the other requirements.

@retetestis and @rntopaz Hi! I graduated from UC too, I read your past posts that you are both from UC and the bay area... I was just wondering how your application for NCLEX went? :)

My classmate took her NCLEX for the 2nd time last week and she passed. She was issued an RN license. Where's the consistency??? Isn't it so UNFAIR???

Maybe she got eligible before the concurrency issue came out.

RNbigheart We both denied by our analysts. We tried to get a help from our dean but she can not do anything because it's a new rule from BRN.
