If you have never worked as an RN, then you place a "0" there.

You must have completed your training and have received your degree for you to even be sending in anything or applying for licensure/CES. They are unable to do a thing until that time. And the title that is on your Diploma is what needs to be placed there.

The form for the release of the transcripts is what is sent to your school so that they can send the copy to CGFNS for the CES. For each school that you have attended, if the course is not included in that one transcript, then you need to have those sent to CGFNS as well.

They are not interested in a sheet of paper from you, but the actual transcript.

There is already much written on this topic, just recommend a good read here first.

Hello everyone! There's an instruction which says that "please place school seal or stamp over a flap of envelope after sealing"

a. which side will it be placed? left or write?

b. which kind of seal? is it a dry seal?

c. if wherever side the seal/stamp will be placed, will a signature of a registrar needed in either side of a flap envelope?

pls help me.. thanks..

You don't have to concern yourself with this. That is the job of the school's Registrar. A signature from the Registrar is usually placed over the flap but again, you don't have to concern yourself with with this. Your Registrar knows what to do.

One thing though is that we advice you to have it sent via DHL or Fedex instead of thru our Post. Just pay what is needed for the courier.

I will applying for CES and my transcripts will be sent from the Xavier University Ateneo de Cagayan. My question is, before i went to school in the Philippines, I went to school here in Texas and when I went to the Philippines, I had some of my classes that were taken here in Texas credited, would I have to send my transcripts of the classes I took here in Texas to CGFNS as well? Thank you for your quick response!

thanks you for the quick reply. I'm just worried since we're the 1st batch of nursing class and they don't have experience on how to do this.

Any coursework that has been done after high school needs to be evaluated by CGFNS for the CES. Just because they were credited does not mean that they are on the transcript from there and that is what needs to be in the hands of CGFNS. So recommend that you have the school in Texas send your transcripts to them.

If your transcripts where merged and is included in your present transcript you should be OK

SD102 is right. Nursing schools in PH, merge or integrates all previous transcripts into one, so that only the last school will have to send the transcripts.

Since you mentioned you are the 1st batch from that school, I would also want to add that transcript evaluations from schools that CGFNS or a State BON that no prior history with will usually take longer than usual.
