State-mandated education forms from your school.

so many variables.

Number of schools graduating at same time, number of students, clerical support at BON and at the school, did every student have all that was required included in the packet-----------around here it is a 2-4 week process. Your chances are better in the Spring than at Christmas. Lack of clerical support the last 2 weeks of December.

Oh, let me clarify. How long does it take for your school to complete the forms and get them back to you to send to the state? I'm thinking we're being made to wait a ridiculous amount of time.

Here is where I give major props to my school. We graduated on the 10th for college. Pinning for nursing was the 7th. College policy stated grades were due by the 12th. Well our director has something in place with admissions and records to have our official transcripts ready by the 12th at 8:30 in the morning. So we went and picked those up and most of us car pooled to Denver to hand it in with our application. This. Was Thursday morning. I got my ATT this morning and my NCLEX is scheduled for Monday morning. Granted I did not want to take my NCLEX this quick. My plan was about 2 weeks. But due to a few factors it's either take it Monday or wait until June 10th. I do have to drive 3.5 hrs to take it so I am leaving Sunday and getting a hotel room. So hopefully I pass on Monday since I will have gotten 1 1/2 days to prepare with practice questions :/
