Who needs an RN remedial course in Florida?

An approved RN remedial course is required in specific Florida examination and licensing circumstances. Your NCLEX history, license status, and Board direction determine the appropriate pathway. Review your requirements before enrolling.

Three Consecutive NCLEX-RN Failures

Applicants who fail the NCLEX-RN three consecutive times must complete a Florida Board-approved remedial course before becoming eligible for another examination attempt.

Florida Board Direction

If the Florida Board of Nursing directs you to complete remediation, share that communication with admissions. We can help you review the required course and clinical authorization process.

Licensing or Reactivation Requirements

Requirements depend on your license status and history. The Board identifies applicants who passed the NCLEX more than five years ago but were never licensed as requiring remediation. Confirm individual reactivation requirements directly with the Board.

Voluntary RN Refresher

Eligible U.S.-licensed RNs seeking a voluntary skills update can explore our separate 100-hour RN Refresher. It does not replace a required Board-approved remedial course.

RN remediation addresses specific Florida Board of Nursing examination and licensing requirements. The RN Refresher is a separate voluntary program for eligible U.S.-licensed RNs updating their knowledge and skills.

Your license status, NCLEX history, and Board direction determine which pathway applies. A voluntary refresher does not replace required remediation.

Before you enroll

Questions about RN remediation in Florida.

Understand the course format, Board authorization process, tuition, and required attendance before choosing your next step.

What is an RN remedial course?

An RN remedial course provides structured nursing theory and clinical education for applicants or nurses who must complete remediation under applicable Florida Board of Nursing requirements. It is different from a standalone NCLEX review course or a voluntary RN refresher.

Who needs RN remediation in Florida?

Florida requires an approved remedial course after three consecutive failures of the same NCLEX examination level. The Board also identifies applicants who passed the NCLEX more than five years ago but were never issued a license as requiring remediation.

Other licensing circumstances depend on the applicable requirements and Board direction. Confirm your individual situation with the Board before enrolling.

Is Nuvelle a Florida Board-approved RN remedial provider?

Yes. Nuvelle is listed under Registered Nurse Courses on the Florida Board of Nursing’s approved remedial course register at its Coral Springs location.

Can I complete the RN Remediation course entirely online?

No. Nuvelle’s 176-hour course combines 80 hours of online or hybrid theory with 96 hours of required in-person clinical training. Online access to theory and virtual scenarios does not replace required clinical attendance.

Can I attend if I live out of town or work weekdays?

Contact admissions before registering to review current theory meeting times, clinical locations, attendance requirements, and available schedules. Plan for required in-person training and any necessary travel. Weekend or customized schedules should be confirmed directly with admissions.

Do I need a Board authorization letter before starting?

The Florida Board states that an authorization letter is not required to begin the theory component. Progression to clinical follows the applicable Board approval process, and clinical affiliates may require authorization.

If you have failed the NCLEX three consecutive times, request guidance from MQA.NursingAppStatus@flhealth.gov . Share any Board communication with Nuvelle so admissions can help you plan the next steps.

How long does the RN Remediation course take?

The course is generally planned around approximately 10 weeks. Completion time can vary with student progress, clinical clearance, Board authorization, and clinical scheduling. Confirm the current schedule with admissions.

What is included in the program?

The course includes 80 hours of nursing theory, 96 hours of in-person clinical training, licensed nurse educator guidance, ALEX AI simulation, and access to a dedicated LMS and virtual patient scenarios.

You can access the LMS on a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. A laptop is recommended for classes.

How much does RN remediation cost at Nuvelle?

Regular tuition is $3,000. Use discount code START500 for $500 off, bringing tuition to $2,500. Ask admissions about any additional required fees and current payment options.

Is the $50 registration payment part of tuition?

Yes. The $50 nonrefundable registration payment reserves your spot and is credited toward tuition. With the START500 discount applied, the remaining tuition balance is $2,450 after your $50 payment.

Are payment plans available?

Ask admissions about current installment and third-party financing options. Availability, eligibility, approval, interest, and repayment terms depend on the payment option and provider.

Does an expired or inactive RN license automatically require remediation?

Do not assume that the same requirement applies to every license status. Your status, time away, practice history, and Board direction can affect the appropriate process. Confirm your individual requirements directly with the Florida Board of Nursing.

Is RN remediation the same as an RN refresher course?

No. RN remediation addresses specific examination or licensing requirements. Nuvelle’s separate 100-hour voluntary RN Refresher is for eligible U.S.-licensed RNs updating knowledge and skills. The voluntary refresher does not replace required Board-approved remediation.

What happens after I complete remediation?

The provider submits the required completion verification to the Board. Your next steps depend on whether you are pursuing NCLEX retesting or another licensing process. Completing the course does not guarantee an examination pass, licensure, or employment.

Where is Nuvelle’s RN Remediation program based?

Nuvelle is based at 1401 N University Drive, Suite 503, Coral Springs, FL 33071. Confirm the location of each required learning activity and clinical assignment with admissions before arranging travel.
