State Board of Nursing Requirements for NCLEX-RN

We’re located in NY. But what if you move? In which states can you practice as a nurse with your Touro nursing degree?

Below you can see where Touro University's curriculum meets each state’s respective educational requirements for professional licensure, or whether Touro University has not made a determination if the curriculum meets educational requirements. You will need to take a licensing exam for each state in which you practice. Many states require you to submit a pre-approval application to determine whether your degree program meets the respective states' educational requirements before you are allowed to take the licensing exam. You can verify each state’s requirements at the NCSBN website.
