If you want to take the NCLEX in CA, then go to the CA BRN website and follow the instructions for the application. You have to apply for the license before a letter will be issued allowing you to schedule a testing appointment with Pearson Vue. You can look in the international forum for plenty of discussion about the process for getting a US license, if your original nursing license is from the Philippines.

oh so i should apply first at CA brn then they will send me letter if im eligible to take nclex exam so thats the only time i can aPPLy to take the exam at pearson vue. tnx for the info calotter3. im still a bit confused maybe because im so anxious

Do you plan on nursing in CA once you passed NCLEX or stay and work in Alaska? If stay in Alaska then I would suggest you apply to the state and meet their requirements as a foreign trained nurse as you may still have to meet them requirements

Moved to the International forum as asking about application to be a nurse not how to study for NCLEX and remember you are not applying for NCLEX but to be a licensed nurse in the US, NCLEX is just a part of that process
