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?

Most schools ask you to take the TEAS it's only a few that has their own entrance exam(not TEAS) just reading and math 

If that's what you have to do then do it. TEAS or HESI can't stop me from getting my degree back. Let's get Moving

Some school will take them. Mine are over 8years old. 

Which school are you currently attending if you don't mind sharing? My pre reqs are also about 8 years old and it's hard finding schools to accept them.

We have to start all over. This is not right to all the people who put in work and time. This is so depressing. I don't know where to start ....

Yes! Same 

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 ?

OMG they have to find a solution for those students not involved and also I have a friend that took the NCLEX after 6 years and the school close by the time and he took the NCLEX and he is working

If NY doesn't approved her/him education then most likely they will.

Very helpful!

so the rest of the schools that are under this investigation has to dismiss them because they aren't involve 

NYS BON still has other schools  from florida on hold for other reasons. those schools listed on website were also being Federally investigated

your friend will most likely get a letter stating to surrender license or have other proof sent in for education if he went to another nursing school.

 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 ?
