LPN or ADN?

I don't know if this is the right place to post this question. I just started my online application to cgfns but I culdnt proceed to the next page without verifying something. I attended a 3 years state school of nursing program and was given a registered nurse certificate and license to practice as a nurse. In the cgfns application form, there is a column for "the type of registration I am applying for" I don't know what to put there. In my country I have a registered nurse license but no Bsn degree and I'm also aware that a bsn is the minimum requirement to sit for nclex. My question now is, can I state that my application is for rn license or jst opt for lpn license? If I go for rn is it possible that my credentials may be equivalent to associate degree nursing and then I cn apply for nclex? I don't want to choose rn then later be asked to do another credentials evaluation for lpn if rn doesn't meet up with the requirements. Thanks

    a BSN is NOT required to sit for NCLEX-RN. You really need to talk to someone at the State Board of Nursing in the state you are planning to be licensed (assuming you are in USA). They will tell you what is needed. Our responses might be no more than opinions and that would not help you at all. Good luck.
