NCLEX Application Vermont with CES: How to apply

Here’s a quick step by step process on NCLEX Application at Vermont Board of Nursing for graduates of international nursing schools, including the Philippines.
1. Apply for CES Report either in CGFNS or IERF. I highly suggest you process it with CGFNS online, HP&S Report ($328) would suffice. See step by step instructions here. CGFNS will then forward your CES report directly to Vermont; they will also furnish you a copy.
