Nursing Licensure Requirements in States Other Than Virginia

UVA Wise’s traditional pre-licensure program is designed for students who wish to earn a BSN and take the registered nurse licensure examination, the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN), in Virginia. Once admitted to the nursing major, students in the Traditional Program must enroll full-time.

Licensure is governed by a complex set of regulations that vary from state to state. The course work required in the UVA Wise nursing BSN program is not designed to meet the requirements for any other state than Virginia.  However, some courses may be accepted by the licensing entities in other states.  Students who wish to pursue licensure in states other than Virginia should contact the respective state licensing board.
