Licensure<br />
Registered nurse licensure without limitations in the state in which your clinicals will take<br />
place is prerequisite to a clinical practicum or research. This will mean that you will need a<br />
<strong>Kentucky</strong> R.N. license and a license for any out-<strong>of</strong>-state clinicals. This process can take up to a<br />
year for students educated outside <strong>of</strong> the United States. If you have not already initiated the<br />
process (which includes taking the CFNS exam and the NCLEX exam) it is imperative to<br />
begin immediately. Please speak with your faculty advisor if you are in this situation. You will<br />
be expected to provide the Office <strong>of</strong> <strong>Student</strong> Services with a copy <strong>of</strong> your license the semester<br />
prior to your clinical work.<br />
