Contact the Board. You may be able to work as a CNA to gain the lacking hours and use the hours you did pass within your LVN program.

Read the notice again for the dates. You will probably see it's for your last renewal. You are required to keep copies of your last four years. The other information was inaccurate. Do not send in your CEU copies with your renewals as the BON an...

Please double check if it is real or just a joke that many nurses will post all the pictures of the CA BVNPT's lazy staffs and bosses... not only to their social network....but also into the web. >>>> You might want to check your laws. T...

I see you've mastered the word "lazy". Now,would you like some facts? My friend still works there and I use to work there. Lazy is definitely NOT the word I would use. For the past three years due to the governor cutting the budget (which most Cal...

As some may know, I use to work for the BVNPT and have a friend currently working there. I was reading the other posts and told her and she has some hints for you all. To some previous posters....yes they answer the phones right at 8am as the phones...

Just remember, the BVNPT did not get funds to hire more people to handle all the denials from the RN Board so they are at 4 months right now. I asked my friend about something someone posted earlier. If you graduated before 2005, you don't need a D...

Hello all, spoke with my friend at the LVN Board. They are SWAMPED with applicants from the RN Board as you can imagine. They didn't get extra people to help them so it is taking 4 months. Declaration is to be completed by the applicant and not t...

In my state, our laws stated that the Board may deny licensure which means............they cannot stop you from taking the test but they can stop you from getting licensed. I believe most states operate this way also. ***this is not for new license...

Why hmmmmm??? They are two separate boards with two separate board members who delegate the rulings. BVNPT also does not accept Excelsior. Would like to add to the above that the 48 months of medical/surigcal (with adults) can also be gained in ...

Why don't you ask where the owners of these Kennedy schools are from and why they didn't start the school in the US? The owner is from the US so not putting down Philippine schools. Before running someone's mouth, perhaps it is better to do research?...

That's not true. They don't pull all cashiers to answer the phones. When they cash your check, it downloads to the printer to print your license so nothing else for the cashiers to do for you to get your license.

You will need to print out and complete the application page, the Record of Conviction page, the (2) 2x2 passport type photos, DD214 showing honorable discharge (if you are not active), the military experience form, the fingerprint form (If IN CA, th...

Nothing like going for an education that half the states won't accept, that a major credentialing sevice won't evaluate any longer, a school that tells you how to circumvent the system. Yep, that's definitely a school I'd want to go to to make sure ...

I just spoke with my friend. The furloughs and now the hiring freeze are doing a number on the Board. When I was there and it's still the same, CA doesn't just get CA graduates (LVN), they get people from all other states where their states don't a...

There are about 10 on the national council's list. CGFNS was the only one who always sent us all the needed paperwork. Some just sent us the evaluation with no original transcript, some accepted open transcripts, etc. The RN program is much more un...

I have no idea what states accept Kennedy however, even if you have a license in another state through Kennedy, CA will not give you an endorsement. Ask Kennedy if they use to tell their students to apply in W VA and then apply to CA through endors...

PS - I am not aware of any online nursing schools in the Philippines. If you know of one, do you mind telling me which ones they are? CA definitely does not pay the applicant's bill to CGFNS. Just to clarify, the person I was responding to was discu...

Read above and why didn't you ask the CA Board when they told you that you didn't qualify the other way? Always always ask the Board you want to apply to. Kennedy is NOT accepted in California so if you plan to stay in CA, you will waste your money...

CA does utilize CGFNS when needed however, CGFNS does not give the exact details CA is looking for. CGFNS will state what the program is equivalent to in the US and gives a full educational report however, that same report is on the transcripts that...

Correspondence, online, distance learning take your pick of what you want to call it. I never worked for the RN Board however, do know many friends there. Google CA Board of Registered Nursing vs Excelsior as they went to court a few years ago. ...

CA definitely doe NOT accept Kennedy Global or Kennedy Review

Also, since you have your "dictionary". CA doesn't charge the high NCLEX fees. You don't really want to talk fees do you since you know everything??? The BVNPT is a self supporting Board which means they are not supported by your taxes. Now, sinc...

Since you enjoy calling out names, it's well known that I have a friend who works there and I use to. To back up your claim about them being lazy, try calling all 50 US Boards and find out how many other than CA will approve people with paid experie...

Check out method 3 on the ways to qualify. Your school will have to complete the nursing form with the theory and clinical hours completed with a transcript. Since all nursing programs are different, the Board cannot tell at what point in a particul...

Sutter Roseville also. Hey, parts of north Sacramento aren't ghetto. Rio Linda/Elverta is country. I would stay away from Rancho Cordova and South Sac. (apologies to anyone on here). If I was buying another house, it would be in Orangevale, Folsom...
