Welcome, cefrn. I moved your post to the International Forum, where it will get the best attention. Please do have a look around this forum, especially the "stickies" at the top, as they contain great information for getting started on the path to licensure in the US.

welcome to the site

You really need to check the board of nursing website to what they require of foreign nurses. Always better to get it direct from the horse's mouth so to speak and you will need to download application from site. Couple of threads good to read are Primer to working in the US and retrogression as you will be affected.

Welcome to Allnurses.com:balloons:

Please take the time to do some reading here, this same question has been answered multiple times here. And as mentioned above, you always need to go direct to the website for the state that you are interested in, requirements are always changing.

I am going to close this thread since the answer is in multiple threads already that have been started on the same topic. Just use the search engine here to find them, and also check with the website for NJ BON.

Suggest that you download the application that you will need to use, and follow the instructions that it gives for the foreign grad; it gives all information needed there.
