Hello again! I am kinda thinking about Southern New Hampshire Univercity., they don't have clinicals, which is it a "+" for me... ., looks like many nurses in CT choose this program..

What school did you go to for your BSN?

Thank you for you questions. I didn't realize that. I need to do more research on the topic...

I am a US citizen!

Thank you very much!!! As I understood correctly, the program need to be acreddited in CCNE or ACEN? One or the other?

Thanks for the story! It a good lesson for all nurses. Let go of your guilt--you did give this lady a lot of time and appreciation. We can not carry tears and guild for every patient we had lost. It is life.... Sometimes thing just happen--we can not...

I am in exactly the same situation... I worked as RN in TX for a year--but we had to move to NY. I heard horror stories that reevaluation of education and endorsement for foreign graduates takes forever--(up to 8 month) And everything need to be don...

Congrats!!! :)

HI! I also had not very high Kaplan scores. The closer you are to the Nclex--the lower the scores are--it was like that in my case. However, I pass the Nclex with first 75 questions!!! Do not let it to disturb you!! Kaplan was REALLY helpful for me!...

I think I am generally against the executions--but in this case it probably the right thing to do......So many SICK people who doesn't deserve to live on the face of the Earth... I think they will be punished enough in the prison....

Hi! I don't know anything about the event you described---however, it sounds just horrible.... God sees everything... If murders weren't punished by justice system--they will face the God's judgment.... Can you please send a link about this event?

Yes. I was working back then in Chicago as PCT. Nurse called security after the pt refused to be discharged, they came and took the patient in the wheelchair to the lobby. I guess they called taxi. Is all I know. Hope this will help.

I am also foreign educated nurse. Looking back--I would suggest you to avoid dealing with CGFNS--it take long time, $$$ and you don't really need it. Some states do their own evaluation of you credentials and as soon as this part is done--they will ...

Hi! I believe that if you decide to move to an other state--you just need to endorse you license. It is usually simple procedure. Since you are an American graduate ---I don't think you will have any trouble with endorsement! Good luck!!!

Hi! It seems to me that YOU ARE VERY PREPARED!!!! The time you spent for preparation will reward you!!! I wish you best !!! Use you knowledge and nursing judgment to answer the questions and try to get a good sleep before the exam day!!!:wink2:

Hi everyone! I really need to ask foreign educated nurses from former USSR( Russia, Ukraine or Belarus) who practice in TX about licensure by endorsement. How was you experience? How long it takes to obtain license in TX if I have RN license from NC...
