A very unique situation that needs attention and advice PLEASE!!

Rating:
(votes: 0)


A have a very unique educational background and I would love some advice!

After three years completed in a four year BSN program, unfortunately my GPA fell slighly lower than the required Nursing GPA. Going into my senior year, although devastated, I was determined to graduate on time. I picked up the major of Healthcare Management and will be graduating with my BS in just a couple of weeks!! As excited as I am to be graduating, I am determined to not give up on my dreams of becoming a nurse. However, with three years completed in a four year BSN program, I would like to know what I have to do to sit for my boards!! It would be preferrable if I did not have to return to school and start my Nursing education all over again, since I am already educated with three years. I have a copy of my Nursing file with excellent remarks in clinical from my Nursing Professors. Can anyone give me some advice?
You would have to contact your relevant nursing board and probable complete a application for exam by licensure and see if they make you eligible to sit NCLEX

You would still need to COMPLETE some type of nursing program prior to being eligible for the NCLEX.
Comment:
Call your state board of nursing, ask to speak to an advisor.

I thought my situation was unique because I was going to be a Senior Nursing student and only had a year left. Many nurses that I have talked to thought that was bizarre! Thank you for your advice!!
