When it gets time to apply for your licensure, you apply to the State Board of Nursing of the state you are planning on working in.

NCLEX is a national exam. You can take it anywhere it's offered. What makes a difference is the state in which you apply for licensure. If you attend school in Idaho but wish to work in Oregon, apply for licensure in Oregon when you are eligible.
