@niknik718 mine just says NCLEX-RN. I emailed the VN dept and they just emailed back and said:
You will bring what you have to orientation and then we will update before start of class if needed.
I know nothing about any CODE. But what i can tell everyone who is asking questions about the BON is that it takes time. Now maybe mine took a little more time than the normal (8months). Not sure. But I did mine back in 2014 when I started taking my prereq's for nursing. So all I had to do was submit a new D.O asking the BON to update the date of the letter. When I applied to SJ i applied to both programs the RN @central and the LVN @ north. I had already submitted all of my stuff to castlebranch because the Rn program wanted everything up front. Once i was accepted into the lvn program ms. howard said she would take care of the switch for me.
I turned all of my stuff in as i received them. I didn't hold on to anything i didn't wait on any due dates. I just turned it in as i received it.
@Emr85 and they will they have already sent your stuff to the BON. We do it and they do it also. its done twice.

Hopefully they give us til the first week of class to bring it in
So no one did the bon before applying to nursing school?
How did yall know that yall could even be nurses?
This was the first thing i did when I knew i wanted to be a nurse.
@niknil718 yes mine took 8 months as well. And when I called this morning, the lady asked "now are you applying for lvn or RN?" So for her to say that, she obviously saw that the lvn program sent in a request for info because I only originally did the dec order for RN. But I will have my paper before the start of class. I turned in my outcome letter when I turned in my app so the vn dept saw mine said NCLEX-RN
In Louisiana that's a part of the admission process
You are not required to do it before...if something comes back you are denied entry.
OH naw not here thats why its done twice.
thats why they allow us to send it in on our on.
than they do it also when they get our applications.
