Yahoo! Congrats guys!!

Silvermoondust: what did she say about your signature but no email? Does the signature on your contract mean you got it??! I mean, is THAT the guarantee?? CONGRATS!!! :yelclap:

Oh well shoot. That blows my theory. Haha. What does your last name start with? I have been patiently waiting this whole time and now that I am hearing people receiving their 2nd final email - I'm going bananas!! Like people have stated before, n...

RNs are still in the running. It seems for those who are getting their 2nd final emails (congrats by the way!! ), they are faculty/NPs. I haven't noticed any RNs getting their 2nd final email yet. Has anybody else?

What are your thoughts on malpractice insurance? Even if covered under your employer, do you still carry your own?

Ohhh someone please help me because I am so terribly lost. I am in California and will be graduating in May. I don't plan on living here though. I am moving to Illinois. I have been searching what to do for Illinois boards and I am confused as hel...

To TheSquire: Can you tell me how the whole NCLEX application works? I am applying to Illinois BON and I am confused like no other! I register both on Pearson and CTS but then I also have to give paperwork to BON that requires proof I graduated... ...

Hi everybody, I need your advice. I am in nursing school in California but will be moving to Illinois when I graduate. Do you recommend I take the NCLEX here and transfer my license to Illinois? Or take the NCLEX in Illinois? Thanks for your help!...

Thanks guys! I appreciate your feedback. It almost seems easier to get my license here in California and then get ANOTHER license in Illinois. But I am still trying to figure out how it all works. I don't get the paperwork for both states - they ob...

What's everyone's opinions on chewing gum while on the job? Just curious because I love to chew gum but I feel as though no one in my hospital does it.

Hi guys, I still don't know what is the appropriate salary for nurses because I think salary.com might blow it out of the water. I am currently in a Master's Accelerated program which means I have a Bachelor's in another major and I am getting my Ma...

:typing Newboy: The problem with Word is there are so many different formats and sometimes your format doesn't match with the potential employers format so PDF is a good way to go. I personally think it looks better and is more professional BUT Wo...

I just wrote this long response and it got deleted! GRR! So I will keep this one short and sweet.. Nursing schools want to hear from YOU, not some made up answers you think they want to hear. Questions they will probably ask you: Why do you want t...

Hi everybody, I know for a fact this question has been posted somewhere else but there was no definite answer. I am wanting to move from California to Illinois and I was wondering how do I go about changing my RN license to Illinois? I have checke...

Hi Espo44, You should be proud that you finally have discovered what you want to do in life! :yelclap: A lot of people still struggle trying to figure it out and some never come to a solid conclusion. Age means nothing nowadays. Don't watch the hou...

As long as you can "beef" (I think someone else in this posting used this word) SOMETHING up, then you are golden. Certain schools will not automatically discard your application because of your GPA. I recommend volunteering somewhere for the good ...

1080 is not poor!! I consider it average! There is nothing wrong with that. :roll

I believe this is the site you need: http://www.nursingboard.state.nv.us/license/Instructions%20for%20RN-LPN%20application%20for%20license%20by%20endorsement.pdf

I was in your same shoes - well, kinda. I had a Bachelor's in something not related to Nursing whatsoever and decided to get into an Accelerated Master's program. Although I will not have experience coming out of it, it will save me the time and ha...

YAY!! Good for you!:clphnds:

Awesome! Thank you so much. That clears up everything. One more quick question, can I apply for the license while still in California or do I have to have an Illinois address?
