Second Mail: Nursing Education
Fill in your information in the upper part of Certification of RLE form. Bring it to your Nursing school and have them complete the Breakdown of Clinical Nursing Experience section. Request that they attach your Transcript of Records and Related Learning Experience Summary, enclose all of it in a signed/sealed school envelope and mail it to Saipan Board of Nursing. If they returned it to you, you must send it to Saipan separate from the application.
Third Mail: High School Transcript
Request for official transcript of record from your High School (Form 137 in PH) to be forwarded directly to Saipan BON. Transcript must have school’s seal or authentication stamp(s) affixed. If the school gives it to you, you must also mail it separately.
If you are from the Philippines, you may utilize the Philpost Express Mail Service (EMS) in sending your documents as it is more affordable than international couriers like FEDEX, LBC, etc.
Saipan Board of Nursing will mail the NCLEX Candidate Bulletin to you once you have been approved to take the test. The waiting period varies depending on the volume of applicants, and it may range from 1-5 months. Once you are approved, that's the time you register with Pearsonvue ($200) for Authorization to Test (ATT) and schedule your NCLEX ($150 if taking outside US). I'll make another post about Pearsonvue NCLEX registration later.
If you have inquiries on the status of your Saipan NCLEX application, you may contact CBNE at phone number (670)233-2263, fax number (670)664-4813 or email cbone@pticom.com. You may also drop a comment below for any clarifications. [via Source]
