Hope the holiday season is finding you all happy and healthy!
I graduated from a private LVN program in May and luckily, 28k later, have no debt as I had saved up long before the program. I was hoping to finish my Bachelor's in Anthropology this year and then transfer to a BA-BSN accelerated program, but decided to attend Unitek's RN bridge program instead. It's quite pricey, but only about 9 months in length. I have all of the pre-req's done. I was hoping to start in January, but my license is being delayed due to failure to disclose a speeding ticket back in 2006. I guess I should have paid attention better during filling out the paperwork, as I thought we only needed to disclose traffic violations which included a DUI or arrest.
I took my NCLEX in October, immediately came home and did the PearsonVue trick, and got the "candidate previously passed the exam..." About a week and a half ago I got a letter that stated I had passed the exam, but my license will be delayed for processing for non disclosure. So now I'm waiting... Sent in the paperwork from the court where I received my speeding ticket. The board of nursing said they're backed up to August with paperwork. So I'm really not thinking I'm going to make this January deadline for nursing school. Ah well, the next program is in June.
So I guess I'll work and save up money in the meantime. Anyone else have a similar experience?
Well here we are in 2015 now and California still seems to be quite behind in the times! I took my NCLEX in feb and called today about my results the BON stated my results have been sent to enforcement because I had a traffic violation which resulted in a $350 fine. So now everything has been delayed because of a single ticket almost 10 years ago!
