I just graduated bsn in the philippines this april 2014. Im already an LVN before i even went back to the phil to study bsn. When i got back last May here in california, i renew my lvn license. I know that california is tougher now because of concurrency issue, i just started applying for the board but still waiting for my tor and diploma coz it takes awhile for my school in philippines to process and release our diplomas. For sure the board will keep asking for more requirements and still end up getting denied in the end just like everybody. My question is, what if i take the LVn 30 unit option (LVN-RN) and finish it and eventually take the nclex and pass it, will they consider my BSN schooling in the philippines or will i just be an RN without an associate degree that can only work in california? I mean i graduated BSN, or will it be a special license because its a 30unit option?
