  2. What U.S. state do you live? Because if you really want to work in the state where you are right now, then you need to apply to the State Board of Nursing where you reside, not because your friends...
  3. Will they honor my BSN after passing NCLEX-RN?

    Yes. Your BSN is acknowledged. You should have BSN, RN after your name. No need to put USRN (like how other Filipinos label themselves, for the sole purpose of colonial
  4. CALIFORNIA BOARD OF NURSING DEFICIENCY

    Based on the poster's info, she hasn't mentioned if she already has the RN license in Texas. I'm grasping that she wanted to apply for the California BRN regardless if she has the RN license in Texas...
  5. NMI isn't even a state; it's a US territory. Where do you want to live and work? What does your heart tell you? Silly question but you have to consider your main priorities as
  6. CALIFORNIA BOARD OF NURSING DEFICIENCY

  9. Challenge NCLEX-PN

    To be honest, I don't know. Different state/territory, different methods or ways of applying as a foreign applicant. You have to contact your State's board of vocational/practical nursing or your...

  12. Challenge NCLEX-PN

    Yes. I know somebody who didn't finish her BSN in the Philippines and she challenged the BVNPT to apply for the NCLEX-PN. Here in California, she used method 3 and she went to ERES in Sacramento (old...
  13. CGFNS and transcripts

    I don't think that, that is an issue. Just make sure that the envelope is properly sealed by the issuing authority, school or entity that releases such documents. Just also make sure that the FROM and...
  14. International Verification of Diploma

    Please update us. I have a friend with the same situation. Let us know what you did if you're done or your document got accepted by the BRN.
  15. CGFNS question

    No. She needs to follow the instructions from the Board of Nursing in Illinois and apply as a foreign grad via CGFNS for the initial RN licensure. She will go through CGFNS first before being able to...

    Thanks. But back to my main concern is about the name change for PRC. Thank
  17. Philippine RN Equivalency Test Results

    If you're referring to your PNLE test result percentage as equivalent to you.S. standards, that is not applicable. I am in California. This state doesn't require foreign country test results. What...

  20. Moving from Australia to America as a Nurse

    If you live in Missouri and you guys are staying in Missouri, then that state must be the convenient choice. However, I'm not sure if she's allowed to apply in Missouri without SSN, because most...
  21. Moving from Australia to America as a Nurse

    I took Med-Surg and OB courses because those 2 were required by the BRN during my application. Yes, they offer those courses you mentioned. I'm not sure if you're able to take these 3 at the same...
  22. Moving from Australia to America as a Nurse

    Hello there Sir. What State are you from? I totally understand her concern. I'm a nurse from the Philippines and I was temporarily denied by California to take NCLEX due to concurrency issues with 2...

    Yes I had to go back to school. 2 courses only: Med-Surg and OB. These 2 courses are commonly required to Philippine nursing grads by the BRN. A few were required Peds only; some just OB only. Depends...
  24. California NCLEX-RN

    When did you finish your BSN degree? Did you have it on the new curriculum? If you really want to stay here in California, then you apply to the BRN. If you're gonna be temporarily denied because of...
