hey there!
i just got married couple of months ago. i am reviewing now for the state board. my school already sent my transcripts and other requirements to the board of nursing. my transcripts has still my maiden name. what should i write in my application form? my new last name or my "single name" ? i do not want any delays or any discrepancy on my application. i want to make sure so they can process and evaluate my papers on time. kindly help me if you know anything about this. i would greatly appreciate any knowledge you have on this matter. thanks guys! :blushkiss
I legally changed my name and it won't become officially changed until the end of April. I have already sent my application for RN licensure and have registered for the NCLEX exam. I asked the board of nursing as well as the person who took my registration for the NCLEX exam about my name change and I was told to keep my old name until after I get my license in order to prevent any delay.
I hope this helps.
