Licensure by Endorsement in CA using CGFNS CES

Has any IEN here successfully attained their RN license through licensure by endorsement in CA using their CGFNS CES report?

I'm not sure if this has already been asked. I've been browsing the related threads but can't seem to find any answer. If there already is a thread/post, it would be highly appreciated if you could point me to the right direction. :)

I am well aware of the concurrency issues in CA. I am also not oblivious to the fact that even if you try to gain licensure by endorsement, the same requirements would be asked of the applicant regardless of licensure status and work experience in other states. However, upon reading the CABON application form for licensure by endorsement, it was mentioned there that they accept CGFNS CES reports (including transcripts, theoretical and clinical records, etc.).

In my understanding, it means that the applicant no longer needs to request these records from his/her university. And the university in turn, would not need to send the records to CABON. The end-point being, that CABON will recognize that the applicant's education is at par with CA's standards. Or does CABON still require the record of cases, clinical rotations, etc., despite the fact that the CES already declared the applicant's education at par with US standards?

If anyone experienced this (either successfully or not) would you kindly share your experience with us? Thanks in advance! :)

Hi!! I am trying to do the same process of doing an endorsement from NY to CA...But before I proceed, is there any update or any new information with regards to CA BON successfully granting the endorsement through the CES?

Hi what happen to your endorsement? Do you use cgfns?
