Essential Information. An RN license is a prerequisite for registered nurses to practice anywhere in the United States. Registered nurses must complete an associate or bachelor level nursing program before applying for licensure. The nursing licensure process for new RNs includes a computer-based exam called the NCLEX-RN.
There are many different kinds of nursing degrees, such as associate, bachelor, master and doctorate degrees. Each of these programs prepare nurses for different types of careers in the health care industry. The two most common programs in nursing are an Associate of Applied Science and a Bachelor of Science. Both programs prepare students to take the registered nurse licensing exam called the NCLEX-RN, a required exam for anyone who wants to practice nursing in a specific state.
