I graduated with my BSN in 1996 and never obtained my RN. Does anyone know if I can take the NCLEX in CA or another state perhaps? Do I need to be a resident of that state? I live in Oregon and you must have your License within 5yrs upon graduating. Is it too late? Thank you!!!:rolleyes:

The way to find out the answer to questions regarding licensing is to contact the Board where one wants to be licensed. Even if CA does not require it, a refresher course would be a good idea for the OP.
