Application and licensing

[Logan2]

Hello, I was wondering if there are schools that accept your chemistry and biology classes with labs if they were taken online? I work full time and do not live somewhere that I can take evening or weekend classes. Also do you have to get licensed in the state you go to school in? I was thinking of applying to schools out of state.

Thank you!

There may be some schools that accept all online coursework. However every program is different so you will have to look at the programs you are interested in to find out if it is an option.

If you are asking about licensing after finishing a ASN/BSN degree. You do not have to apply in the state you went to school if you are planning on moving to another state right away. The program you attended just has to be accredited and recognized as a valid program by the BON of the state you want to apply in. However it can be a good idea to go to school where you want to work because of the networking opportunities you'll have while in school that can make a difference in landing that first job out of school.
