I guess she's still waiting.

Hello, I'm looking for some guidance to start a new career in the nursing field. I am a 15 year veteran of the US Navy, but I was not a HM/Corpsman. I'm looking to start a program somewhere in San Diego that will take my military experience and AA degree for credits to start. I've looked at all of the local community colleges and for-profit/private universities, some of them look OK, some are kinda expensive/shady. I was wondering if anyone has the same/similar experience and could point me in a good direction. Thanks in advance!

So, in this particular situation, will the applicant have to retake these courses in order to satisfy the requirement?

Well, that's a part of our problem. How I understand it is she won't be able to take the NCLEX until she submits an application to the BoRN and they tell her what she is delinquent in. And in the mean time, what kind of employer or a job would hire her in the meantime while she fulfills those requirements? She is going to get her SSN card as soon as she gets here and then apply for her Change of Status to legal resident as soon as possible. We don't want her to be underemployed while we wait for the Board's decision and while she prepares for the NCLEX.

I need some guidance/advice for my wife who is coming from the Philippines to California. She has her nursing degree from the Philippines, but has not worked as a nurse due to lack of available jobs in her area that meet her income requirements. So, once she gets here, we'd like to be able to find a job for her that will allow her to work in the profession and finish her requirements to sit the NCLEX. What kind(s) of jobs should she look for that will help her kill these two birds with one stone? Thank you for your help!
