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 actually went to this school Mendez. I am having the same issue like you do. Can we hook up via email or phone ? 

Response to Apple19.  Tell your friend she is too late to purchase NSO insurance at this time due to her license now under investigated. She  can only purchase if her  license is in good condition and before she receive letter from the BON. Tell your friend if she did go to school and finish nursing program from previous school. Get herself a lawyer to help defense her license ASAP. Do not say or admit anything to the BON. They will use that against her.  If she truly attend school she should fight for her license. If she give up her license that means she agreed she is fraud and that will effect her creditential if she has LPN license. She will have hard time to work in healthcare in future. School scam us and  make us look like we fraud but we are the victim. So stand up for yourself. We are good nurses and not a fraud. There are people who never attend nursing school and just bought the license. But we are not them. We are hard working nurse who truly going to nursing. So please don't give up without a fight. I understand the government want to protect public safety so they are looking at case by case. They also know not everyone is a fraud.

Anyone with contact from a Board of Nursing (BON) needs legal representation to protect their license and livelihood BEFORE making any decision /speaking to BON from a lawyer with experience before nursing board.  The American Association of Nurse Attorneys (TAANA) is a good place to look for advice.

Not yet, I live in fl ,they give us an option to retake the NCLEX, thats what iam going to do 

@ paul Hosty  I don't understand. Did you take the NCLEX in N.Y.? What school did you attend? 

 

Really? Nybon says to go back to school and they'll freeze your NCLEX score till you submit transcripts from this new school and make sure there's no transfer credit from any of the schools on the list.

Yes they told me the same thing. This is what they are telling us even though our schools are still under review. It is the same as saying we are not giving you the license unless you get another education. You might as well get started because we will never clear your school.

So you guys gonna have to retake the NCLEX even though you've already passed. 

No you won't take NCLEX if you've already passed they gonna hold on to your results till u complete your education from an approved school then they'll issue u a license
