CGFNS

World Registration

Published

hi everyone! my family just recently moved here in maui 2 months ago and i am now interested in pursing my nursing career here in hawaii. I am an RN in davao city, philippines with hospital training experience after i received my RN license but is not credited for employment purposes. through my online research about the steps before taking NCLEX-RN exam i have learned that my credentials needs to be evaluated by the CGFNS so I registered on the CGFNS website but i did not pay yet because i am not sure what documents to send. they said that i needed to send a request form to my former nursing school to get my transcript of records and everything but I already have my original transcript of records here with me. Can i just send copies of my transcript of records to cgfns right away? do i also need to provide records from my primary and secondary school? Anyone here who have done this before? pls i need your advice what to do. thank you!

I meant the PRC license verification.. I just rechecked their website its P75.. The steps are also there.. :) Nope I'm from the Visayas.. :)

You will find it cheaper to sit NCLEX in the US than sitting it outside the US

You will pay $150 for an international testing center... If you take it in the US you do not pay anything... í ½í¸„

Can i pass the NCLEX-RN exam if I just self review or do I really need to enroll to a review center and sit on a lecture?

When do I start filling up my application form for nclex and when do I send it to the hawaii bon? Do I need to finish my transactions with the cgfns first?

That would really be up to you. Enrolling in a review center does not necessarily mean that you will pass the NCLEX. Assess your basic knowledge and try answering NCLEX questions online to further assess your knowledge and test taking skills. If ever you do enroll in a review center make sure that it is a good one, as these review centers are not cheap. :up:

Up to you. Check out the NCLEX forum under the student tab, many pass without using a review center

Give it a couple of months with CGFNS and then submit application to BON, they will not do anything until they receive documents from CGFNS

so i sent the CES forms to my cousin in davao city,Philippines and he went to my school Davao Doctors College and PRC already. does it really have to be my school and PRC to send all the documents back to CGFNS? or can my cousin send all the documents to me here in my hawaii address and i will be the one to send it back to CGFNS just to make sure it will be sent.?

If they have to post it to you then probably better to post it straight to CGFNS. If they post stuff to you it must be in a sealed stamped envelope and show no signs of tampering otherwise the BON will not accept it
