I'm from Ohio and I just got my temporary license in PA. Go online to the board of nursing in whatever state you need and look at their applications by endorsement. This allows you to license in another state than your original. If you need your PA license quickly they can give you a temporary license in 1-2weeks which you can work on till you get the real thing. I sent my in last week and I'm all ready approved online. It's pretty simple to do, it just requires some money and your transcripts (at least in PA, it could be different in other states).
