Can you use degree's that are obtained in other countries in the USA?

Question

I wanted to move to brazil for a few years and teach english while going to a college there. Will my degree in nursing be valid in the US when I get back? or will I need to reattend school here?

Answer 1

Certain degrees obtained from other countries such as nursing will require additional education and training in the United States once you return.

Some degrees will not transfer at all, meaning you would have to start again - I would check with the correct authorities and universities about the possibilty of a Brazilian nursing degree transfering to the United States.
