Hi Ms. Joan! I wld like to know if it’s okay to have erasures on my application form that I submitted to my school? I’ve called our registrar and told her to erase my SS# coz u said that I should leave it blank since I’m not a citizen in California. Pls answer…Tnk u n GOD Bless!

As much as possible it would be best not to have any erasures in your forms since it gives more room to ask questions. But if it could not be prevented just make sure that it is very clear and aside from erasing it make sure you wirte N/A or Not Applicable just to make things clear.

I have taken the NLE last June 2009 and I am considering myself to apply and take NCLEX while waiting for the result. I am applying for Illinois. Does it require CGFNS?

It actually requires CES which is a service offered by CGFNS it evaluates all your records etc. But if you have taken the CGFNS examination then the mentioned requirement can be forfeited.

i’m in the process of completing my application pero nagka problema po ko dun sa breakdown of educ. form. i hold two degrees, nutrition& dietetics and nursing, and both of them i took from different schools. most of the subjects except po sa microbilogy was filled up by my nursing school and i was advised na pumunta po sa previous school ko para sila naman mag-fill up noon. kasi sabi po nila  hindi ko naman daw sa kanila kinuha yun subject, so i went… but when i asked them to complete the form they refused, they said that my nursing should’ve completed the form and included the said subject because they credited it in the first place. bumalik po ako sa nursing school ko and sinabi yun paliwanag ng previous school ko pero they insisted on their prior reason na hindi nila magagawa yun kasi nga hindi naman sa kanila kinuha yun subject and madi-disprove lang daw yun application ko if they do complete the form.
what do i do now? i would really appreciate the help. thank you.

I really do not know what to say with your situation since I think your first school is right about the subject being credited so that should reflect on your records. If the registrar refuses maybe you can talk with your Nursing Dean and have him/ her intervene with the issue. I hope that this helps. If all else fails, maybe you can try to talk to your previous school and have them accomplish the form.
