Thank you so much again for your advices. I'll definitely contact the school first before I start to do anything. I'm looking for schools in NY and CT. I will start to look for the schools in these states then.

Thank you UVA Grad for these information. Just to have a general idea before I go to apply for a school. Would you tell me which are the companies that your school is accepting CVS. I have green card and I'm RN licensed in CT.

Thank you both Silverdragon and Lunah RN

I'm foreign graduated Nurse from Romania. In Europe we have only 3 years nursing program. I want to get an MSN degree from US. Is there anybody who can advise me how can I enroll to an MSN program and if I'm eligible for MSN in the States. I already have RN license in CT.

Hi Istranbul Also I'm from Turkey from Istanbul :)but I live in New York. I've been living here in the States almost for 3 years. I passed my nclex-rn on December 11 2009 it wasn't easy. Now I'm waiting to receive my License as RN from New York Board. It took me like one and a half year to be able to take the test. I took my nursing degree from Romania but I worked in Capa Medical Faculty in Istanbul. After I came here I had to study to learn English then I had started to study for nursing. First of all you need to decide in which state do you wish to work and then you need to contact CGFNS and to see the requirements for which state you are going to apply. I will be very glad to give you more information if you need. When I first came to this country nobody could helped me about my situation because nobody heard about Turkish Nurses and nursing in Turkey. I should say if Silverdragon and Suzzan wouldn't help me I wouldn't been gotten my RN License in this country This forum helped me a lot and I would like to help you too.

Hello Kaur79 I'm foreign graduate nurse. When I start to study to get my accreditation for my nursing degree I thought I will never make it because everything was totally different except disease and medicine of course . I'm telling you this story just to let you know that nothing is impossible you need to trust yourself and believe in God If I made it you can make it. I studied from one book and this was enough for me to get through all of these tests and I got this suggestion from Suzzane's plan. Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN. I kept red that book till I memorize almost all information. I know sounds funny but I realize after a while that I remember all information. I passed my nclex-RN last Friday it was my second try first time I failed with 167 questions and I was devastated I got depressed you can every bad stuff and I applied second time because of my stubborn friend she forced me to pay for exam she was believing in me more than myself and second time because I was so disappointed from the first experience I didn't even studied for second time and I went to take the test just because I paid for and I didn't want to wait any longer and you know I passed with 75 questions.(the screen was blue ) Just believe in your self even if you can find 2 hours a day to study this can help you a lot.Good luck and trust yourself.

Hi Silverdragon102 and Suzzane I would like to thank you from my buttom of my heart for your support and advises. I'm here today because of you I got my accreditation and I passed NCLEX-RN for New York state. When I first came to this country I didn't know where to go where to apply or from where to start to get all these processes. Randomly when I was searching on web to find some answers I found this web site and I start to read and I saw this forums and I wrote to you. You answered me right away and you lead me what to do and where to apply. Now I passed the NCLEX_RN and I'm looking for a job.Thank you very very much and God bless you both.
