for CA RN lic.ENDORSEMENT from Another State

Published

Hello Everyone!

I have a RN License from another State in US but I want to acquire CA RN License by Endorsement. I am an International graduate and passed IELTS 2-3 years ago. My question are as follows.

1.Will they require me to take TOEFL even if I passed IELTS and NCLEX? Considering I am only endorsing my license to Ca?

2. They asked for Transcript of Records. Is it okay that the CGFNS will send them my TOR electronically or will they require that the TOR should be sent directly from an International school to California BON?

Can someone please enlighten me on this matter. I would appreciate. Thanks a lot!

Can you share your experience? Were you able to endorse?

I am still waiting for my papers...Ca BON needs TOR/Transcript from the school you graduated from.It must be sent from the school to BON DIRECTLY.Then you can apply online and pay the fee(MUST BE DONE at the SAME TIME). Do LIVESCAN and have license verified from the State where you have license with.

How about you? please feel free to share your experience.Tnx!

Congratulations!!!????

Nada..My school has not sent the docs yet.Still waiting..I believe if your transcript says the medium of instruction in school was English, you'll have the high chance to be exempted..It's the discretion of the evaluator or analyst to require you to take English proficiency exam or not. Please update me the progress & result of your endorsement to California.Thank you!
