CES requirement

Suggest you contact CGFNS. If you plan on gaining further education once in the US then academic report is the one most institutes will accept

If you're an RN trying to apply for Hawai'i Board of Nursing, I think you should do CES Professional report. That is what most BONs need.

Hi,

@Silverdragon102: I sent an email to CGFNS but have not received any responses yet. I actually tried calling BON Hawaii but the woman I spoke with told me that they do not require CES as opposed to what is written in their form. She wasn't that nice and cuts me off during our conversation, I just said ok then dropped.

@aiaa: Thanks, I am not sure how they differ. My understanding was that CES Full Education Course-by-Course Report refers to the academic one. But if you say that is what most states require, I will then be placing an order for that :)

I will shoulder the cost for my NCLEX and just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.. $350 is $350.

Hawai'i was actually one of the states I was planning to apply in. But I chose NM. Hawai'i BON requires CES or CP. It states in the CGFNS website that professional report is what mostly is being used when you are a professional. Academic report is used when you want to pursue further education. I personally ordered that service (and had it expedited). It was processed in 2 days business days. I applied last Friday. They sent the report to NM BON today. That quick. I paid $350 + $250. From what country are you? :)

Whow. REAL quick. :) I don't have that much :) besides, I am still enrolled in a review center and will finish the program by July so no rush. I am planning to take the exam this August (if possible).. Not sure though how long it will take for the entire application before I can take the exam. Some would say it's 5-6mos.. if that is the case, I might just take it by October or November.. :)

BTW, I am from the Philippines :) and you?

Yeah, I guess even if I live here it'll take some time still. I hope I could take the test sometime July-Sept. I'm currently enrolled in Kaplan - On demand. It's prolly gonna last 3 months. I'm from the Philippines too. :)

I'm with Kaplan as well :)

I just placed an order for CES last night. Thanks to you! :)

Yeah, I guess even if I live here it'll take some time still. - You mean you are currently in the US? what state?

Sirs what does the the Texas Bon require? They need Full Education course by course report however, cgfns now issue Professional and Academic.

I already had my CES report back in 2009, can i still use it?

Hello everybody, I'm planning to take the NCLEX Florida and have to evaluate my course. Can I still use my CES Professional Report in the year 2011? So that it will be more cheaper if just for reevaluation? I have my own applicant's copy. Please advice.

Probably need reevaluation as report must come from CGFNS. Alternatively ask the BON
