CPNE To NCLEX.........

[inspired1]

Hi, I've been an LPN for 6 months now and really thinking about going to my local college getting my prerequisites done and enrolling in excelsior for my nursing courses I was wondering once you complete all the tests and have passed the CPNE is there a waiting period to take your nclex-rn? And how difficult did you find the courses? Thanks in advance.

It is just a matter of submitting all the paperwork having EC validate your graduation. I know that they graduate students every other month (I think) or once a month. If all your paperwork is in and you don't owe EC anything, then it depends on you BON if they need a signed diploma from the college, or if you can apply and the diploma catch up to your application. I know florida you can apply on line I take my CPNE really soon 4 days, but my application is already to go, I just need to pay the 204.00 dollars and they will be working on my application!!!!

i need help with this . do you have to send anything into the board before you graduate or do you send the paper work to ec and they send it to the board. i read somewhere that you need to start on this in the last several weeks...i am confused by the process
