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?

You probably got a lpn license from NYS from the same school because at that time your school was accredited and now it's not point blank

@Starr22, Hello, how doing. Any news yet from the NYBON? Or we have to wait until after September 27,2023.

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 

That makes no sense cause there alot of nurses from schools in that investigation still with active NY license working

I highly doubt we'd have to start all over. If anything, Florida is allowing us to retest. I sent in my application just in case as I wait for NY.

The memo made it seem like they will resume accepting students of "approved" out of state schools on 9/27.

Where did you see this memo????? 

It's on NYBON website I can't find the link but I read it a few days ago

Sent my application to FL as well just in case I have to retest. I did call them they instructed me on what to do. I'm not sure if a decision or what decision will be made on 9/27. One thing I know they will have lots of application to process or look at including the ones that pass the NCLEX.

 

I think someone mentioned they would most likely approve school that are accredited "accredited"

Let me go raid the website....brb LOL

I spoke to a rep on Thursday and she stated that the Director (Mr. David) is supposed to decide something soon to help "facilitate" things.. whatever that means. She mentioned that they "just cant leave us hanging" 

Pray!

Whew!! I pray we won't have to retest, but im preparing just in case. After I passed in May, I stopped studying (because why not?). I don't see anything at all about 9/27/2023, but I'll be calling on Tuesday to clarify. 

Those are the only schools they have been approving though...the accredited FL schools. 

Sighs, I'm ready to work, and continue on with school. NCLEX shouldn't still be a topic for us right now.

Info you gave is inaccurate, they didn't vote on anything, it clearly says if adopted in sept  meeting it will become effective sept 27 to be a permanent rule that they will not accept out of state approved programs. They have a meeting on sept 11 and 12.

If you can post where u got your info would be helpful to everyone; but this is what I got from the memo from April 10
