Hi All! I'm from NJ working as an ER nurse. I applied for a license in CA last year and was given a letter stating that I needed to take MEDSURG and Psych nursing before they can issue me a license. I was just wondering if any of you guys know any school that still accepts students like me. Also, if you guys know any schools here in NJ or NY please let me know! I need help! Thank you very much! Please PM me anytime or shoot me an email at [email protected].

What's up man! I'm gathering all the requirements as of the moment. I will let you know as soon as I get a response from CA BON. What about yours?

"Hello. I am a CA resident but graduated Nursing school in the Phils. I have an RN license in nevada and i am currently processing for the licensure for endorsement to CA BON. I just wanna know what school did you go to. I am a bit worried bec of all the concurrency topics posted. I came from Cebu Doctors' University which is I think 1 of the top 10 med schools in the PH. Are all the PH nurses really gonna be denied? Or is it just depending on the school?" Hey! I tried endorsing my new york rn license in california but I got a letter saying I need to send them copies of my clinical rotation records, curriculum outline, ssn, licensed in the philippines, passport, etc. I'm an american citizen graduated in the Philippines 2007. Ive been here in ny since 2010 working as a telemtry nurse. Im trying to gather all the requirments they need. I hope everything will work out! Let me know about yours. Goodluck!

HI charlottenyc! I too am a foriegn graduate but got my BSN degree. However, I took nclex-rn twice already still no luck! I decided to challenged nclex-pn and passed on the first time! Now, I'm looking for a nursing home or hospital to hire me. Unfortunately, they're looking for experience which I dont have! Oh well, I guess I just have to keep on trying. Im licensed in ny but live in nj. If I were you, I would give NY BON a call and tell them your situation. I think it wouldn't be a problem because you have an lpn license already. You just have to endorse it. Goodluck!

Congrats! Thats a good sign! I too have a Bachelors degree in nursing then decided to challenge nclex-pn. Any luck finding a job yet?

Yes, I did but no call. Im having a hard time looking but hopefully someone will call. Im just being patient right now. Thanks for replying =)

Hi! I'm looking for a job as an LPN in NY too. So far no luck =( Can you share me any information you know on where to find a job w/o experience needed please.

erick_14... did you pass? where are you residing?

I took NCLEX-PN last month and passed on the first time. What I did was just answer questions by system. Try to answer 50-100 question everyday. You can do it!

Oh my, I didn't see the date of this post! I thought it was dated aprill of 2011! Im so sorry!

I live in NJ but license as an LPN nurse in NYS. Do you have a job now or still looking? Where do you live?

Hi DailandeLPN! We're on the same boat! I have been looking for an lpn job but no luck. I will let you know if anything comes up =)
