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?

Curiously , I stumbled on Washington state board of nursing platform which  updated ( July 21st, 2023  )the list of FL state fraudulent schools from its previous 6 to 19 schools now. More schools were added after reviewing for their participation in the fraudulent act with the initial 6 major culprits listed on NYBON. I hope this get resolved on time by NYBON for those of us who did not go to any of these schools. This is really depressing !

wow did anyone see how washington state BON put the names of people whose licenses was rescinded  or applications were denied b/c of their florida nursing schools all out in the public

Is this something new, or they been doing it?

so this date is related to where the NYS BON is when it comes to processing new applications. the date has nothing to do with the schools underreview  or on hold

Many states, if not all of them, make disciplinary actions public. Maybe when someone looks up the individual license or via a newsletter. This would be like PA's newsletter published on their site to me.

Hey yall...

After 5 months of waiting, I just went ahead and asked FL for re-entry. I got my ATT today, and I'll be retesting soon. I'm so saddddd, but I can't lose sight of the end goal. It took me 7 years to pass, but at least now I know I can.

I pray something shakes soon because this isn't fair at all.

Reading this is so sad even though that's what some of us may have to do at the end it's just unfair. I wonder if they brought this situation up yesterday and today in their meeting.

It's like I feel so crushed and unheard, but at the same time just thankful that this is even an option. It's been a long road. I started studying a couple weeks ago. I don't plan to wait too long before retesting. Archer, NCLEX High Yield, and Nexus Nursing all over again. 

When I spoke to the representative today, she told me their meetings have nothing to do with our situation. Another told me they knew nothing about the PDF discussing the decision for 9/27. 

I just prayed and gave it to God. I hung up and proceeded to pay for my exam.

Did you mail in your application to FL  or online? I'm going to go up to my school to pick up my official transcript and mail everything together( unopened) so I can start the process without delaying 

Which schools did u go

I went to Academy for nursing and Health Occupations

Nybon always play a blind I . They may do nothing at all who knows. It looks like they want people to forget about like it never happened only to keep others with active license that were involved in fraud.

Ny really holding others for that those did. Sad. Keep your head up guys I know its hard to work hard to only get the short end of the stick

Its pretty sad , I wish u the best. Do u live in ny?

SO TRUE ABOUT NY! They will

drag this until people forget then the one that did not commit fraud will be the one paying for it. To be honest, if they wanted to do someone they would have. This been going on since last year but yet giving out ATT??? then stop people from getting their license and think they're doing something.  
SN the representatives who answers the phone they don't really know much besides a computer that's telling them application under review ect..

If you already tested with FL then you want to fill out a "re-examination" application. If you not, then fill out the "examination" application. You have to print it out and send a $110 money order. Along with that you have to write a letter simply stating that you want to withdraw your endorsement (if you did that), and apply for re-entry for the state of florida. I had already paid for the endorsement application, so I asked them to transfer the $60 processing fee and just paid $50.

You'll get approved (just call them....they're busy right now with renewals). They will send you an approval letter. Pearson will send you an email stating that FL approved your re-entry. From there you'll have to call Pearson to pay for your exam. You CAN'T pay for it as you normally would online since its a re-entry. The pearson phone call felt sketchy, but trust it. LOL 

After you pay, they'll send your ATT. I got mine all in one day.
