How to validate subjects in colleges here in USA which were taken from another country.

How to validate subjects in colleges here in USA which were taken from another country.?
I would like to know what are the procedures of colleges and universities of USA in validating subjects that I have taken from another country particularly in the Philippines. I have finished up to 2nd yr of BS Nursing and I am about to take a healthcare related course here in the USA. Some of the subjects from the curriculum is the same as the subjects that I have taken back in the Philippines. So I would like to know if there is a possibility that my previous subjects be validated in the school that I am about to attend to

" is there a possibility that my previous subjects (from the Philippines will) be validated in the school that I am about to attend in the USA ?" There is a possibility, but no guarantee. Each college has its own procedures; they usually check with the prior university and then decide if all or part of your credits will transfer. Some schools do this by having you take something like the final exam for their courses to judge if you should get credit. Most colleges/universities will tell you their procedures without you having to enroll - so you could talk to several universities and go where you are likely to get the most credit from your previous courses.
