MAY 2, 2003 CGFNS begins posting roster lists online for the CGFNS Qualifying ExamSM The Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS) is now posting the roster lists for the CGFNS Qualifying ExamSM on the CGFNS web site, www.cgfns.org. A few weeks before an exam, applicants will be able to logon to the CGFNS web site and look up whether they are rostered for that particular exam. Roster lists will be divided by test center (location), and then applicants can look up their CGFNS ID Number on the roster list of the center they chose on their application. Applicants indicate first and second choice of exam location on their Certification Program applications, so if they do not find their CGFNS ID Number listed on the roster list of their first choice of location, they should check the roster list of their second choice. The roster list includes the address of the exam center and the time that registration for the exam begins. Applicants should remember to bring their admission permit and at least one form of official, government-issued photo identification (such as a passport). CGFNS is an immigration-neutral, nonprofit organization based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, and is an internationally recognized authority on the education, registration and licensure of nurses worldwide. CGFNS’s mission is to provide responsible leadership in the delivery of relevant services to the global nursing and health care community. The organization was founded in 1977 through a collaborative effort by representatives from the U.S. Department of Labor; Department of Health, Education and Welfare (now the Department of Health and Human Services); the Immigration and Naturalization Service; and representatives from nursing organizations, including the American Nurses Association and the National League for Nursing.
