Meeting criteria for NCLEX

[SJ93]

Hi

I didn't know quite where to post this but here goes...

I'm looking into doing the Advanced diploma in adult nursing in the UK and have a desire to one day work in America but I know that you have to have theory and practice in pediatrics, obstetrics and psych. Is it possible to study in these areas as part of placements or will I have to do a BSc in order to qualify to take the NCLEX exam? Sorry if I sound a little dumb, I don't know much about the way these courses work :icon_roll

Moved to the Nurse Registration forum.

It isn't just placement that is required but also theory. UK training is aimed at the UK so getting the university to meet other requirements may be difficult as they train you for the UK not to emigrate.

This is something you need to discuss with the university.
