Hello! I just graduated from a bachelors nursing program and am interested in earning my graduate degree (in midwifery) in the UK. I also plan on returning to the States to work as a Certified Nurse Midwife, unless I love it in the UK and end up living there! Anybody in the same situation? Anyone ever earned a nursing degree in another country? If so, please reply. Thank you!

You would be further ahead to get your CNM in the US, as you will have classes to make up otherwise to get your certification for here. Remember that the names of the medications are different, etc. and in the US, you would have prescribing privileges, so additional schooling will be required.
Your choice..................but keep this in mind..........
