Master studies in the USA

Published

Hello,

I would like to ask you about master studies in the USA. I would like to study nursing (bachelor) in the UK and master in the USA (is it possible?). Coud I work in the USA as a nurse after my studies? I would like to be CRNA.

Much will depend on the immigration and visa issues.

I'll move this to the International Forum where I think you'll get more answers

Starting point would be checking out the nursing curriculum because currently for a lot of UK trained nurses they do not meet US requirements due to the way UK training currently is. US is general trained where the UK is specialist.

Finding a school that does full time MSN may be the next issue and then it will be expensive. The school has to be approved by The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP)

Next would be immigration requirements and if you are not meeting immigration requirements you will have to move either back home or look at another country and then the process may be long
