Only got one answer in NJ forum - so posting here. I have learned that my school takes close to two months to file the paperwork and it will be two months after I graduate before I can test. In NJ you can't work as a graduate nurse, can't even apply until you've passed the test, so the delay will cost me 9k minus taxes and I am deep in debt.How long does your school take?

Jun 7, 2008 Here is the schedule of what happened with me:April 30 - Final testMay 11 - GraduationMay 27 - Board of Nursing received students' paperwork - We were then listed on the Ohio BON site as graduate nursesJune 6 - Received my ATT and scheduled my testSo it took my school about a month for our papers to get to the right place. We were also told in March it would take this long. Two months though? That sounds like a little too long! It's like being held hostage because you can't do anything about it.Are you sure you can't even apply in the meantime? That sounds different.
