When to register

Published

Graduation is quickly approaching and I'm beyond excited. I would like to know when would be a good time to register with the FLBON. We'll be graduating in December. I just want to be prepared. Any other advice would also be appreciated!

Thanks guys!

Your instructors should be able to provide this information to you, as they are the ones who would be submitting your transcripts to the BON. However, you can also contact the BON yourself to inquire about the application process and when you could expect to receive your ATT for PEARSON VUE. I can't say for sure, but I would not think you could apply until you are done with the graduation process.

For my NCLEX-RN process, I had to wait until I had received notification that my degree was conferred (officially approved) before I began the process because, here, the criminal background check was only good for 60 days. Had I gone through the check before I actually received my degree, I would have had to repeat that process, including paying for it. If you will be graduating in December, I would say you should have a clearer view of where things stand by November...but I would still check with the BON just in case...good luck!
