  1. tourist visa convert to either working or student visa

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to gracielle86's topic in International Nursing

    I've even heard of some nursing programs that are also feeling the effect of the economy. A lot of nursing schools depend on the private donations coming from the hospitals. Now those donations are...

  2. tourist visa convert to either working or student visa

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to gracielle86's topic in International Nursing

    The OP should come up with a plan B and follow it while she's waiting for Plan A to come into effect. Don't lose hope as Rougue says, but face reality at the sametime. If it was meant to be, it will...

  3. How long does it take to get results In California

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to zolushkalvn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    None at all...no worries, but I knew what you were saying, I was just saying what my experience was, and I was one of the fortunate ones that was able to get mine within 4 weeks. It wasn't an opinion...

  4. tourist visa convert to either working or student visa

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to gracielle86's topic in International Nursing

    It's only a suggestion on your part, and it's a good option for the original poster. Definately something to think about. But at the sametime there's no guarantee that she will be able to find a...

  5. Green card of nurses

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to cucukebede's topic in International Nursing

    People there is no way to sneak into the US legally and working. If you sneak into the US it's going to be very hard to find work. Unless you want to come out to California and work the fields,...

  6. Struggle to get license in Oklahoma

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to RN2009Belarus's topic in International Nursing

    If the CGFNS only keeps records for a certain amount of years, then maybe they should offer people who have used them the opportunity to renew or something like that. I don't see why they should keep...

  7. No second bachelor's at Cal State LB?

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to Megsd's topic in California Nursing

    All Cal State schools are implementing the "No 2nd bachelors will be admitted". It's across the board and I'm running into a lot of people like us. If you want to come back to California and study...

  8. Struggle to get license in Oklahoma

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to RN2009Belarus's topic in International Nursing

    That's why there's regulation, and when you come here from a foreign country, you have to meet each states requirements. There shouldn't be a national license because each state has their own scope...

  9. tourist visa granted but went home to the philippines

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to gracielle86's topic in International Nursing

    It's people that abuse the visa that make it harder for the ones who just intend on using the tourist visa to visit and have full intentions of going home. But sometimes they're denied because of...

  10. tourist visa convert to either working or student visa

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to gracielle86's topic in International Nursing

    A tourist visa is just that a tourist visa. It's not for the purpose of coming to the US and attempting to convert it in order to stay. Sorry but there are others who have been waiting patiently in...

  12. How long does it take to get results In California

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to zolushkalvn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hopefully once the economy picks up, then California can come out of the dinosaur age and speed up the process so people don't have to wait as long. Other states have their results quicker. It's...

  13. Warning - excelsior students

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to robertjankowski's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I totally agree, it's very inconsistant. I totally agree the education is the same, why California chooses to do that is beyond me. I believe they should accept Excelsior graduates whether they are...

  14. Problems with EC

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to Hotlando's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Derrickca, can you please PM me with the name and email of the person? I'm wondering if it's the same person that I received an email from.

  15. Western Governors University

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to LolaBunnie's topic in Western Governors University

    They have reasonable fees and are on the CA BRN website. If they would just have clinicals in my area, that would be another option for me. But of course, they don't offer clinicals in my neck of...

  16. Warning - excelsior students

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to robertjankowski's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I guess I need to make myself clear. California also said they will go on a case by case basis. To me that's not consistant. If anything they should have something across the board so there's no...

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to Sweetlittlemissharem's topic in International Nursing

    You can take the NCLEX-RN in CA, but you wont be issued a license with out a ss#. So therefore you wont qualify for an

  19. Warning - excelsior students

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to robertjankowski's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I wish CA would accept Excelsior. I've been in contact with CA BRN and finally received some answers as to why they don't accept their education. Which baffles me, because they accept foreign...

  20. Calling all Danish nurses, that have passed the CGFNS requirements.

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to Sine's topic in International Nursing

    I have a BA in a non nursing field and I'm working towards my ASN. In the hospital where I work at they don't care if you have a BA in a non nursing field, or if it's a BSN. BSN is preferred, but...

  21. November 2009 Visa Bulletin

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to greenjungle's topic in International Nursing

    They don't need to totally forget about it. They should have a Plan B while they're waiting for Plan A to take affect. There's a hault, but pick up when given lemons and make some

  22. Can International Students with Associate of Nursing and RN license work in USA

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to RN-Washington's topic in International Nursing

    Think about getting the higher degree as Medsurg nurse has stated. It keeps you here as a student, but it will also be very expensive for you. Keep all your options open, be prepared that you will...

  23. Can International Students with Associate of Nursing and RN license work in USA

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to RN-Washington's topic in International Nursing

    Also if your degree isn't valid in Sweden, then you really should look into another nursing school so it can be valid in Sweden and in the US. You will be required to return home and if you can't...

  24. Can International Students with Associate of Nursing and RN license work in USA

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to RN-Washington's topic in International Nursing

    You just said you don't want to be a nurse other than in the US. So in other words you don't want to be a nurse if it's not in the US? If you were born to be a nurse, then you wouldn't care where...

  25. Can International Students with Associate of Nursing and RN license work in USA

    NurseCubanitaRN2b replied to RN-Washington's topic in International Nursing

    So then you're choosing nursing for the wrong reasons. If your sole purpose is to be a nurse in the US ONLY then you don't have a passion for nursing at all. There are people who post on this board,...
