As long as your school is accredited by NLN shouldn't have any problems sitting for boards in PA. I went to school in MD and took boards in PA - then you just filled out where you wanted to take boards at on the NCLEX application (of course that was in the old days when it was a 2 day exam on paper!!)
Good luck!

Hi all,
I am wondering if I should attend school in the state where I want to work or is it easy enough to go to school in one state and then get licensed in another? I currently live in VA (for the past 2 years) and I want to work in PA (where I grew up at). If I go to school here in VA (for 2 years) will I need to do anything to take the licensing test in PA? I know I will have to have transferable credits to continue my education in PA but is the nurse training/requirements different from state to state?
Thanks.:)
