Does Texas require NLE / local license?

Published

Hi! I'm Jing, once and for all does the state of Texas require NLE or local license in the country where you were educated? And what others states do not require NLE or any experience?

*BSN graduate March 2013, no experience, lives in California

*Passed IELTS.

*CGFNS CES report will be out soon.

I'm not sure if this topic has been posted before so please bear with me as I cannot find any answers.

Thank you in advance!

The report won't be forwarded if there's no active application on the BON's side so you might as well submit an application to the board of nursing now.

Complete and send in your BON application as that means as soon as report is issued the BON can attach it to a file and start the process of checking eligibility which means quicker answer

Oh my thank you guys... As I had said some informed me that there is no point of applying to the BoN until CGFNS is done. So thank you, I will get right on that. How long after I applied for the BoN should I apply to the pearsonview? Any ideas? Thanks

Usually when International trained the BON will tell you to register with pearsonvue

Is this the correct one to register with? http://www.bne.state.tx.us/pdfs/forms_pdfs/examination_pdfs/RNExam2014.pdf

And I believe I send a check along with that and a fingerprint card if I'm not mistaken?

Thanks
