I already asked NJ BON and they said I cannot challenge the NCLEX ? I guess I have to go back to the Philippines. But I have to do it over again since there will be a new curriculum when I get back. ?

Let's say you challenge the NCLEX-PN here in California, then you get your eligibility, then you pass NCLEX-PN, then you start the endorsement.. that's when the "I don't know" of the future will be, because even endorsing license as a foreign grad/applicant requires you to submit transcript that you took the degree. Each State varies. What I can only share about your situation is it's possible here in California; I'm not saying that you have to move here. Go look at other States closer to NJ that can cater to your needs as well. There are 50 states and other territories too.

That person that I mentioned? She keeps her evaluation record from ERES and she went to a state university here and she was told that she can finish the courses for the BSN but there are some pre-reqs that she needs to fulfill prior to jumping into the major courses to get her BSN degree. The BVNPT (Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric Technicians) here now requires foreign grads (using method 3) to use an evaluation agency to process the application first then the agency forwards it to the BVNPT. If you want to read about more of this, I made a post about this in 2017 and this is the link:

The California's BVNPT website is: https://www.bvnpt.ca.gov/

Application can be done by Breeze online at https://www.breeze.ca.gov/datamart/mainMenu.do;jsessionid=8q_alwQVyw05EVraV78MfRQqW89XzGdA98qZsyHt.dca-fp-98-o-26

Method 3 for BVNPT: https://www.bvnpt.ca.gov/applicants/method_3.shtml

It is my understanding that NY stopped challenge of PN for non completion of RN program back in 2007.

This will be a lot of work but thank you so much for the details. ♥️ This gave me hope.
