You are most helpful steppybay! Thanks for the advice, I've been to New York, and sure as hell, I got how they've been coined as the "rudest" city in the US, and (I don't know if it's just in Times Square) but it's like every inch you move, you pay. It's crazy. I was studying for awhile here in Cali, so I inquired about those courses, the college said it would take 2 whole years, and said it would almost be like repeating the whole program.

Hi. I also graduated that same year. 2 Nclex exams? Seriously? I can't imagine! I only sent out the application last March, and with how the post office in the Philippines work, I'm guessing, it'll take my school to send transcripts to CA BRN, in about 8 months, which the BRN would probably respond to with another request, which would take another 8 months to get received and replied to. I'm guessing it'll take that application around 1.5 - 2 years, probably more. I should just choose NY then, if someone from PI would share that they got through the reciprocity/endorsement, I plan on waiting on it, however, most comments I got are discouraging.

Thank you, you put like 3% of hope that I could get it approved, Hehe. But still, it's worth trying, It's probably best to just go to NY while waiting for it to get rejected, or approved. Thanks again, a whole lot! :)

Yeah, I know of people (foreign grads) who took the Nclex in California, passed and got their license, but all of em took the test before the new regulation (that was Year 2010). The people I know who applied to take the Nclex exam in Cali from year 2010 all got rejected for the same reason of not meeting the requirements. Right now, I don't know anyone who tried to have their license from another state endorsed. Not one. So my family are hopeful. I, on the other hand, is hoping to hear experiences of rejection or success here @all nurses. Hehe Honestly, it's okay, I really want to go work in NY and move on, but my family who lives here in Cali, they want me to wait for the papers to get result. Obviously, they want me here, but I've been unemployed with an on-and-off part-time office work for a year and half in Cali, and it's getting a bit depressing. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME & REPLY, I've beeeeeen checking and checking... :)

Hello all, I am a BSN graduate from the Philippines, and an RN there and in New York. I'm sure you guys know that international BSN graduates has not been getting through the California BRN since year 2010, because of the issue that foreign graduates (esp. from the Philippines) lack units during our college / Nursing years. This said, I know zero of my colleagues who applied to take the NCLEX got their ATT, since o'10. I recently applied to have my license in New York endorsed to California, and noted that one requirement they had is that I must provide my college transcripts from where I graduated (again, in the Philippines). I am currently in CA, but I am thinking to just move to New York, if I am only waiting for my application to get rejected because I lack units, or cases/caseloads. I'm looking for someone with the same case I am in, or who was in the same case.. Please help me, should I just go to New York? :(
