Hi,
To all the wonderful amazing nurses/nursing students/practitioners etc...I need some help:)
I am hoping that someone can offer me some direction, information, or advice in my current situation. I graduated salutatorian from my program in2010; however the board said I was unable to take the NCLEX at that time and I had to go to court to dispute something that happened 20 years prior to my graduating after testimonials from my DON, my Boss, and pastor I was investigated and finally was given an ATT 2 years later. but Louisiana Board of Nursing has a three year time limit from the time you graduate to the time you must pass the NCLEX. I failed.
Because of my situation, the Louisiana Board did not grant me a short extension to prepare for the NCLEX nor did they tell me I had this option .Unfortunately, I called, emailed and never got a response, I went to the board the receptionist said , " ITS THE LAW! "
I would love any suggestions or if ya'll have information on what step(s) I can take to be eligible to take the NCLEX again. I am wondering if there are other options to become eligible to take the NCLEX and become licensed.
Thank you so much for any advice you may provide ! xxx
