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?

Shoot! Got it can y'all work in a compact state. Wouldn't be hard to prove which students obtained their diplomas illegally. Would you be able to proceed your BSN? 

The did a through investigation so I believe they know who bought the fake the degrees and who actually attended classes. They gave the list to all of the BON with the nurses working with the fake credentials. It is up to the BON to take action as are doing doing now. They are denying or not accepting those schools anymore. They are also revoking licenses. They have been doing this for a while now. It's just now that they are releasing press the conference after the investigation is over. The owners of these school were already convicted in 2022 and told the feds everything.

My friend went to carleen for the review after she couldn't pass the exit at southeastern college she is now freaking out that they might revoke her license, she's license in Florida don't if she can move to another compact state to work as an RN she got her license beginning of 2020.

If she attended the classes then she should be fine to practice Florida but I am not sure if they will revert the compact license to a single state one.

That's terrible hope they make their decision soon y'all deserve to move on and forget about this whole ordeal. Wish y'all the best of luck. 

What I'm trying to understand is that if 3 schools were part of the fraud investigation by FBI and were reported on the news why are other people posting that these other schools were part of it? The other schools weren't mentioned on the news so let's not start spreading information that we don't have all the details on.

They grouped them all in the same category. Most are on there because ny investigating and no longer accepts transcripts because of low pass rate . Carleen RN program is now gone only Lpn program

Yes and that I'm aware of low pass rate which is different from an FBI investigation

That person is posting inaccurate information. The schools caught for fraud made the news. Those schools are under review because they have a low passing NCLEX percentage and pretty much any Florida program will be under education review. They are checking too see if they meet the requirements in NY. If Any BON sees school as not meeting requirements you will not be issued a ATT and if you passed three boards you will not be issued a license. You would have to get a nursing education that meets NY BON requirements.

And most people just did their boards in NY because it's unlimited and cheaper than CT to do it which is always unlimited unlike FL. So a lot of people don't care to work in NY and just want to further their education 

Oh wow I was wondering why New York because it's unlimited but they have to endorse it here

Yup... Florida you get 3 chances and then you have to take remedial classes and a lot of people don't want to go through that stress especially if they have test taking anxiety so people choose to take the NCLEX in unlimited states like Connecticut, New York and Iowa amount others and just get an endorsement for the state they live in.
