General Application for Admission: General applications required by the Admissions Department. a. The Admissions department staff will discuss the cost of the program, financial aid options and other eligibility details of the program. b. The Admissions Department will also provide information concerning criminal or illegal actions that could prohibit admission to a nursing program. They will refer applicant to the online version or have a copy of the Texas Occupations Code 301.252, 301.257 and 301.452-469 plus Sections 213.27-213.30 of the Texas Administration Code for review. i. These discuss the conditions that may disqualify graduates from taking the NCLEX-PN exam for licensure and the rights of students to petition the Board for a Declaratory Order of Eligibility. ii. If an applicant knows in advance that there is a possible violation in his/her background, the applicant is highly encouraged to initiate the process for Declaratory Order per instructions on the TX BON website. Bell Admissions or Nursing department can assist the student in locating the proper forms, but the process is entirely up to the student to communicate with the TX BON beyond this point.
