Move to Texas.

Hello,

I will finish my ADN in Washington state by Aug this year. After completion, I'm planning to move to Texas. I'm a student on F1 visa. Following are my questions -

Can I give my NCLEX RN exam in Texas? Can I get my RN license directly in Texas? Can I do that considering my RN school is in WA.

Which approach will be easier - Move to texas, give the exam and get license OR finish exam, get license in WA and then move to get TX RN license?

Also, as a new grad RN, will I find jobs in TX? Which are good places for starters? Please advise.

Any help is appreciated.. Any information on the detailed process to obtaining NCLEX RN exam and RN license in TX is appreciated.

I would say depending on how long it would take you to move down to Texas, you could wait and take the NCLEX down in Texas. I graduated with an ADN degree last Dec and took the NCLEX in march in New York State and I got to tell you, it has been a hassle getting my license from the New York State Board of Nursing. I am currently on an F1 visa and I was told to send a copy of my student visa before my license could be issued and then I could get it endorsed and get the RN license for Texas State. I will be relocating to Austin, TX at the end of May and if I had known, I would have just gotten my license in the state of TX in the first place and by pass all this waste of time.

Good luck to you.
