Need an answer please! Don't know what to title this

So i just graduated from an accredited school in Ca and took the NCLEX about a week and a half ago. I got a letter from the BRN saying that they had not recieved a transcript for my Anatomy class and that my results were on hold. I sent in three transcripts in the same envelope so I know they recieved it. My question is, does the BRN only accept certain anatomy classes or does the school you are applying to decide what is an acceptable anatomy prerequisite course for their program? The anatomy class i took was titled Human Biology it was a four unit class with anatomy and a little physiology and included a lab (I had taken it before choosing nursing as my major). Some schools said it was an acceptable course for anatomy if I also took physiology which i did. Some schools wouldn't accept it. Now I am worried that the BRN is going to tell me this course isn't an acceptable course and make me take it over. I already have a job that is holding a position for me and this is a nightmare. I resent my transcripts and sent them with a note saying what the anatomy class was titled and where on the transcript they could find it. I'm hoping they just overlooked it since it was titled Human Bio instead of human anatomy. Any advice on this subject would be much appreciated. Thanks ALL:)

Give them a call.

I've always thought that the schools determined which courses were acceptable, and if the program was accredited, that's what mattered. Schools title courses many different things so I'm thinking that they overlooked the course or the transcript was misplaced.

The other thing I am thinking is it sounds like you transfered in the anatomy credits from another school. It may be marked on your transcript as a "T" (or similar abbreviation, indicating a transfered credit) without an actual grade. The BRN made need a transcript from the school where you completed the course.

It's best to call the board of nursing and ask if they have certain requirements about courses.

Thanks for the reply. I sent them a transcript from the school where I took the course, but did not specify the title of the class. I will try giving them a call on Tuesday. Thx again.
