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?

A little bit confused, are they sending these emails to students who went to these schools and got involved in this scam only ( 7,600 students ) or it does not matter ?

 they are rejecting educaton for all students who went to that school during a specific time frame that are licensed and or still waiting to take the NCLEX

Exactly, that was my understanding because not every student that went to those schools got involved in the scam. I have a friend of mine who wanted to go to one of these schools but got scared when she was told about the scheme ! 

Well my school is under probation and they still investigating too I got graduated 1/2022 the only way schools get rid of probation is having passing rate of students so I don't know what is gonna happen in my case too ?

I started all over again and I'm in school now I just hate that I have to take the NCLEX again. 
 

ps: if u decide to go back to school don't tell any school you was part of this,they won't admit you.

What school ? Do you have a email ?

They rejected people that were waiting to test and those for endorsement for those schools that were listed in fraud case. NYBON has not suspended anyone that is  currently licensed from those schools. They are still active and working.  I believe there deciding what to do about all those nurses in NY since the majority were licensed in ny state. Other states have taken away anyone license that attended any of those schools, which was a small percentage. Also they did give those a hearing to show proof, which so far no one has shown evidence as going. Online is not adequate  as a student stated as going 

Well my problem is that my school is in probation but I got graduated before the probation start and they still making me feel like the have to decide because the school  is listed (probation) I'm dying this can't be possible

That's not true cause it was listed on NYS site that they have started sending out letters to those with licenses asking to turn it in voluntarily and no criminal action would be taken and people on here did say they received letters to give it up so not everyone is still working or have active licenses. @Maria30

Yes it's true they did send letters to nurses with active licenses to voluntarily surrender their license... but for those who opted not to surrender their license they are still active and able to work. In other states like Maryland they automatically revoked their license surrender or not.

You are not understanding. They did give out letters to surrender, but alot of people didn't. They have not revoked there license, they are still active and working. As long as your job did not let u go. The only people that are revoked are those who surrender voluntarily.
