ok, so i passed my NCLEX last week, YAY, and now need to apply for a florida license. i graduated from nursing school in alabama and figured it would be easier to sit for an alabama license and then apply for a florida one when i passed. but, i'm having trouble navigating the site to figure out how to apply for the florida license. i was wondering if anyone had any info that could help. i found a link to apply for license by endorsement but it states you had to have worked for the last 2 yrs....confused :confused: any help would be great!! thanks so much!

Looks like it's an online application here:

Licensure Requirements for Registered Nurse or Licensed Practical Nurse by Endorsement of Another State License

If you have questions, you should contact the BON. Good luck, and congrats on passing NCLEX! :)

thanks LunahRN! i looked there but the licensure by endorsement states that you had to have worked 2 of the last 3 yrs so it's throwing me off. i guess i'm going to call in the morning and see what they say

I think they're just discussing the various ways to licensure -- you don't have to do it all those ways, if I'm reading it correctly. Just one. :)
