Nybon Nursing School Under Investigation

I finished my LPN-RN program from Carleen Health Institute. I took the NCLEX under New York state board and passed the exam. I'd been waiting on the license a couple of weeks and decided to call NYbon, was told the school is under review - hence they would not be issuing any licenses till the review is done. They also wouldn't give a time frame. Does anyone have any idea how long these reviews usually take or what could be done in situations like this?

I Took My ASN at an Accredited School in Florida and I had to transfer to a different school in South Florida due to COVID-19 online procedures to a new school for my last class. I was unaware of anything fraudulent, everything checked out. I transferred my credits and finished, and  passed NCLEX for NYS and I'm still awaiting my RN License Number since 8/24/2022! Can anyone help? I legitimately did all clinicals and am now at a lost for words, and trying not to quit. I feel like I lost 2years of my life.

 

Call New York BON and tell them to transfer your test score back to Florida BON. You should get your license number 

How can I see if my RN NCLEX Results are on Nursys?

Hi I have a question..I attended one of the schools that is currently closed in Florida. I wanted to know if I completed a accredited nursing program. Will I be able to sit down for the NCLEX when I'm done with the program? Should I call BON

That's so incredibly frustrating. If it meets CCNE accreditation then why wouldn't NYS take it? I went to in person classes and in person clinicals. I feel like they should accept my school because it is in good standing and fully accredited. At this point, the only way I can get my NYS license is if they become a compact state. 

FYI, Herzing University, Louisiana  is currently on probation by LA Board of Nursing therefore affecting NY license application --doesn't meet NY state requirements.

When I posted this, it was fully accredited. I see now that it;s on probation but when I graduated it wasn't
