  • “Map my Texas nursing license steps: WES evaluation or CGFNS”

    I need my Texas nursing license steps mapped, starting with whether a WES evaluation for the USA is the right report. I'm a registered nurse with five years in a cardiac ICU in Kerala, and I moved to Houston last year with my husband.

    Everyone online says get a WES evaluation, but I've also read that nursing boards often want a CGFNS report, and I don't want to pay for the wrong one.
