  1. So I'm a U.S. citizen and my parents sent me here to the Philippines to study nursing. I was born here and have family here, but I grew up in the states and naturally became a citizen. I've got one...
  2. If you haven't already, i recommend you go to Facebook & follow "California Board of Nursing - Foreign Graduates" Lots of helpful
  3. I spoke to a CA BRN evaluator. The board will not accept online courses. Yes you can. I did
  4. Yes, I can confirm this because I did it. First you need to ask the school if they are willing to allow foreign educated nurses to take certain classes from their nursing program. Then you need to...
  5. I'm a foreign grad currently licensed and working in TX as an RN, but I really want to go back to CA. I originally applied for licensure by examination in CA, but was denied because my clinicals were...
  6. Thanks for the sad and ugly truth. I was planning on doing what SoCalNurse88 did, but after 2 years of working as a nurse. That way, I would have both money to spend on the "make-up" course and the...
  7. Any foreign grad nurse with concurrency problems in any of these 13 states (Alabama, Arizona California, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Vermont, Virginia,...
  8. Hey guys. I need some help. I'm a foreign grad who came from a college where our clinical cases rotate every week. For example week 1 will be DR, then week 2 will be Med Ward, week 3 Pedia, and so...
  9. Thanks for taking the time to explain all that to me steppybay. I guess I've been lazy to look into each state/BON website. I will start doing more research as to which state would be a desirable...
  10. I'm a BSN grad from the Philippines and am still trying to take the NCLEX since the CA BRN has denied me. I need a job, and since I can't get a position as an RN right away, I was wondering what other...
  11. CA Board of Nursing

    The BRN want you go to a nursing school. They should have given you a list of approved schools with that letter of denial they sent you. When you go to that school, you need to talk to the Nursing...
  12. CA Board of Nursing

    I'm very much upset with the CA BRN. Once they see that it's a foreign grad that's applying for the NCLEX, they pretty much just toss the application without giving them a single chance. They tell us...
  13. CA Board of Nursing

    I understand how hard it is to take the NCLEX in Cali. I just graduated this year from the Phil, and BRN slapped me with the darn concurrency problem when applying for the exam. Is this how it is with...
  14. So You Want To Move To Texas?

    If what you say is true, then I would have no problem settling in the small, mid-sized cities. I just want a job, and unfortunately, I don't think I, or many of us graduates for the matter, have that...
  15. Yes i understand. I've applied for VT a few weeks ago, but after hearing that they too have the same concurrency issues as CA, I may have to apply to other states, but we'll see. If i get another...
  16. Wow thank you steppybay. That is some unfortunate news to hear. I might try your advice and contact that person. Hopefully though, she really could help me out. I kind of regret going abroad to get...
  17. I think I know what you mean. My clinicals and cases were all done outside of the classroom, in the hospital. My lectures and exams were done in the classroom at
  18. Thanks a lot! You guys are REALLY ​helping me
  19. Ugh... so I might have to take the IELTS and CGFNS? Well, that's fine i guess. As long as i can take the NCLEX and get my license. Thanks guys for your
  20. Thanks! I think I may apply in Texas instead since I also have family there, and, from what I've read, Texas doesn't require CGFNS. What do you think? Idk about the English proficiency part though,...
