Can International Students with Associate of Nursing and RN license work in USA

I dont get it, it doesnt make any sense. Why havent my school counselor said anything about this or even stopped me from applying to the program when you apparently cant work in the US with an ADN even though you have taken your RN license. I dont really believe in this.. I have read a lot about people getting sponsored, so I guess, that is what I have to do after getting my license..

Maybe I didnt make my self clear, im studying here in the US.

It doesn't matter, Retrogression has been ongoing since Oct 06 and affecting everyone including those that train in the US. Even if you find a petitioner you can not stay and work whilst waiting for a visa. To be sponsored generally H1b you need a BSN and specialist and for GC you will be affected by retrogression and currently no visas and none until the new year starts in Oct and even then expected PD is between 2003 - 05

Usually students are expected to return back to their own country and no guarantee that you can stay in the US and work once completed as a student

Why would your school stop you applying? Where you end up working is not their problem - getting your school fees is their priority.

It doesn't matter where you study. You *may* be eligible to work for one year after graduation as a part of your student visa, but after that you must leave unless you have another method to immigrate. You cannot be sponsored for a green card, you cannot qualify for a work visa. Anyone who offers you those things is either lying to get your money, or prepared to do something illegal.

Where are you from? If you are Canadian you can get a TN Visa after you graduate without a BSN.
