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?

Has anybody heard anything yet? Have u called recently? How long have u been waiting for? What’s the way forward in this situation ? please help

This is a fact for their trial they were actually performing a fraudulent role.

Hello, I have the same situation.  I graduated from Carleen in March of 2020. Passed NCLEX.but couldn't get endorsement to Washington state because the school was under investigation. My license got denied in  Washington state. Even though I have Florida compact license but couldnt find the job. Carleen transcript was unclear which cause Washington open investigation on me which lead to my license got denied. Now every where I applied they ask if I ever been under investigation by any board of nursing. The answer is yes which cause me to lose my chance. Most of my nursing credit is from previous accreditation school but because I couldn't passed the exit exam that why I transferred my credit to Carleen. My question is will I able to transfer my credit for BSN program? If yes. Which school will accept it? Please help

Hey, sorry to hear that, if you graduated in 2020 I might know you, I was supposed to graduate in 2020 at Carleen  and I’m from Washington state too. Washington state has listed that those students who graduated in Carleen in 2016 can’t take NCLEX, because carleen is not approved by BON of Florida. Just look for school that will accept your license and do BSN or move to Florida since the license is compact there. I wish you all the best. 

If you look on the internet. There is a list of schools that may accept you for a BSN. Try colleges that accept students from approved nursing schools that are not accreditated.  There was a list of about 20 schools that you could go to for the BSN.

the review by washington was not on you specifially it was on the school. which is what you should have told those other states. if a school is under review transferring those credits to a different school will still put you in the same boat of being on hold because the school is being reviewed

@Starr2022 is there a way I can contact you ? 

Hi All

Any new updates y'all ? 

No updates on schools but was told that if your nursing school is under review and you passed, going to another nursing school will not help because a) you aren't permitted to take exam again b) it still all boils now to the school information that originally  made you eligible for NCLEX.... so bottom line  don't hold your breath on NYS right now.

@starr2022 But what if you did pass before the investigation started and is currently working??‍♀️

Hey star do you have a email that I can contact you ?
