Would I need to go to school again if I go to a college in another country

Would I need to go to school again if I go to a college in another country?
I'm planning on getting a bachelors degree in Nursing in another country and I want to come back here to California to get a job as a nurse. Can I do that? Can I go to a university in another country, get a bachelors in nursing, then come back to USA to take the nursing exam?

No you couldn't just come back to the US to take the exam.Nursing education is different in every country. You would have to take the exam in the country that you studied in. Then if you wanted to get your nursing license in the US you would have to have your education assessed and they would decide if you are eligible to write the NCLEX. If you went to Canada for example it wouldn't present too much difficulty as their nursing education is very similar to the US one.If you went to England you would run into trouble because their nurses are specialist trained and you would be lacking education in certain areas that are required in the US.Many other countries do not provide the standard of training you need to pass the NCLEX.If you are planning on working as a nurse in the US you are much further ahead to get your education here.

You have many choices if you want to study nursing. First you should choose the part of the US where you want to live. That will limit the options (although you will still have plenty!). You can also check out this blog specifically for students who are studying or want to study in the US: http://www.universitylanguage.com/blog/ Good luck!!!

To start Nurse as a career, you should have a diploma in Nursing. Since you have B Pharmacy Degree which is considered a Bachelor Degree, I don't think you should have any problem starting nursing as a career.

Can I become a Nurse in Europe and work in the USA

Can I become a Nurse in Europe and work in the USA?
I am an American citizen and I would like to study in Europe and become a nurse there. Would the degree I get in Europe be valid in the United States? The country I want to go to is Germany, but I also wouldn't mind Finland.
