CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

World Registration

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:

hi guys, i am new here, and i've been reading all the comments coz i am planning to apply for nclex exam in CA. i just recently passed the NLE few weeks ago and im still here in the philippines right now. i am a greencard holder and resident in virginia, and my cousin told me to take ca nclex rather than va nclex because she said that it is much easier to apply in ca but after reading the comments here, im a little bit afraid of having the same problem.. im planning to go back home in virginia this april but i want to gather all the things, requirements that i will need to apply for eligibility to take ca nclex..

anyone can help me? any advise for me, will truly be appreciated.. thanks in advance..

*there are part of those forms where you need to submit to your school for them to fill up and supply the necessary documents.

You may bring with you your schedule of clinical rotation with complete instructor's signature, dates, time and place, and also the cases we need for PRC we needed for NLE. As far as I know, that's what the BRN is requiring us but it's not the same for all of us.

Probably better applying direct to Virginia as you may still need to meet same requirements for endorsement due to training outside the US
