Thanks for the much appreciated advices in getting license in CA. I was just a little worried about actually moving back to the Philippines in getting my degree and having problems getting license and job when I do graduate. I had a lot of disagreements with my friends and family about the move but I just want the life experiences that other places can offer, plus getting my roots back. Now I just have to look for a good school to take nursing in Pampanga. I finished all of the requirements for entering nursing school here in Ca. Hopefully, the schools in the Philippines are more than willing to take those credit. Thanks again to all that shared their experiences.

Thanks RNHawaii. How much did the college in the Phil prepare you for the test and your first job? For California, did you have to take any other tests or any supplimental classes to satisfy the requirements for lisensure? Did you apply for the NCLEX while still living in the PHIL and did you waited for the results there or did you do it in Cali? I'm just worried that I have to fly back and forth to personally manage problems with the process. Thanks, you've been helpful.

Thanks for your reply Lawrence; it was really helpful. I have taken advantage of the dual citizenship option. I read that the NCLEX will be soon administered in the Phil as well. I would like to know if anyone can share their experience in obtaining licensure in California, having dual citizenship. Thank you

Wow, great forum! I plan to move to the philippines this year to take up nursing--long story but I just want to get away from distractions--but I have concerns and questions. First, how soon can I apply for the NCLEX upon graduation and do I apply in the Phil or go directly to California and apply there? Should I stay in the Phil while waiting for the application and transcripts to go through? How long is the wait? What steps can I take to limit delays? And lastly, in picking Philippine nursing colleges to go, does their ranking in the local board passing rate comparable to the passing rate to the NCLEX?

Hello, I am currently living in Southern California. I plan to transfer to the Philippines to finish a BSN in Pampanga, where my family lives. I have a GI Bill I could use so money for tuition is not a problem. Does anyone here have done what I plan to do? Anyone going or have gone to Angeles University Foundation for Nursing? I finished the requirements required transfer to a university for the california colleges. Please help.

Have you tried AUF? I heard its a good college to go to for nursing. I'm currently in California and planning to transfer to the Philippines for college. Tell me if its a good school, yeah.
