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?

@T Jasmine three years thats crazy. I think thats untrue. I know someone that went another school and waited a long time and they still didn't allow them to take boards or transfer. And threes pasted long time.

I think NYBON tells u anything cause they won't give info

They should at least check school records and class and clinicals where u attended 

while that sounds like it a long time it could be possible. anyone who graduated from palm beach School of nursing should just go to another school .I know that sounds harsh but when you have a school that is not only being investigated by  several states ; have already been denied by a few states  and federally.  you will most likely be done with a new school before a resolution is even going to occur.

Makes totally sense. 

@maria honestly I was told three years also. But to have a student wait that long and not allow them to test is insane. 

@Maria30 what school was that?

Its really not right that they let some people go pass, and most of time its the ones that didn't attend. Smh

if a school is under review academic purposes it is no telling how far back that goes and how many students it affects so again it could possible take that long.

NYBON doesn't look into those that have already been given license . Which they should

I was told once you hold a license you will have it for life. What I don’t get is (I was a student at Palm Beach) how can NYBON tell me I can’t test while others in my class hold a license. We have the same education. Started the same day and graduated the same day. What makes them qualify and not me? 

@Lpn.N.Y its really sad but I know someone in your same situation and attended that school. And others went on to get there license but then they choose to stop others, but it hapoen cause the owner was caught selling. Theses people do anything for money, messing up there students that went to there school

@Lpn.N.Y how long have u been waiting?

@Maria30. Waiting for almost two years

@T Jasmine

thats person went to Palm Beach school of nursing. But it was so long now, they gave up

if the school was fine at the time they took and passed the test there is nothing the BON can do and won't be doing anything to their license. NYS didn'tput the school under review unti April of 2021. so anyone who took the text before then is not affected by this review
