They are accepting students into ASN in some campuses. They are not approved by Florida BON for ASN. Can those students still sit for the NCLEX?

Okay. Are employers asking for endorsed licenses even if that state is NLC

The NLC allows you to practice in 34 states without having to get those individual states' licenses. I hope you understand that this is the case for all nurses who obtain a compact license, regardless of the nursing school you attend. If the state approves your application for the compact license, you get it and are able to practice in all 34 states. Therefore, if I already have a compact license from my home state, it is legal and valid to practice in any state within the compact. My troubles occur in states where I need licensure by endorsement...

Yeah I know that, I'm just saying I wonder if there are cases people who have that compact and hired to work in a NLC state and the employer in that state still insist an endorsed license

Maybe you are not understanding... I already told you I attended Carleen school and I HAVE a compact licence. I also explained that once you get the compact license there is nothing else to do in order to practice in the 34 states under the NLC. Why would you then ask if the individual states may ask you to get a license? You would've already had a license to practice in the state... I also explained that my problem to get licensure by endorsement had to do with non compact states. I thought I was clear with explaining all of that. IDK what it is you may be missing but I'm done explaining. Have a good day.

Clearly you're not understanding. I heard your situation wasn't refuting it; I just brought something else up that can come across due to my own experience. I am not talking about those NLC states I said certain employers in those states sometime still ask for your license to be endorsed; which in some cases are odd because compact means you are eligible to work in that NLC state. But like I said stay blessed hope things work out for you and the rest of Carleen graduates!
