Did you know? The U.S. is short more than 1 million nurses.
The U.S. government officially recognizes that there are not enough professionals to keep hospitals fully staffed. It has created legal pathways to hire international nurses, with a work visa that can lead to a Green Card for you and your family.

To work as a nurse in the U.S., you need to validate your degree and obtain an American professional license. The process has 3 stages, and Nursy guides all of them for you.
The process can be costly. And we are not only talking about money.
You are a nurse. You worked hard to graduate, you have clinical experience, and you know your profession is valued in the United States. But between you and that career there is a detail-heavy process that can feel designed to confuse.
There are English forms with terms no language course teaches. There is the school that does not answer the email requesting transcripts in the format the U.S. agency requires. There is COREN taking weeks to issue a simple document. There is the moment, months later, when you discover you paid a fee in the wrong place or chose a state that does not accept your profile.
And worst of all: every mistake costs time and money. A translation rejected because of formatting. A form filled out incorrectly that invalidates the application. A document that needed a specific format and no one told you. The process is unforgiving.
Nursy exists so you do not have to go through any of this.
We are an advisory firm born from the real experience of a nurse who went through this process alone, made mistakes, learned, and decided to create what she wished she had. We do one thing only: U.S. nursing licensing, from degree validation to the license in your hands. For visa matters, we refer you to specialized lawyers.
We do the work, you follow along
TruMerit (formerly CGFNS) forms, Josef Silny, Board of Nursing, Pearson VUE, school and COREN: the Nursy team handles it all, and you follow in real time through a dedicated email.
No one goes silent here
Meetings on Meet, direct WhatsApp support and proactive updates: we reach out to you, not the other way around. If an agency stalls, we chase it.
We have guided cases like yours
We know what each Board asks, what the evaluators require and where processes stall. Even American companies trust Nursy with their candidates.
From your degree to your U.S. license. 3 stages, 1 team guiding you.
Each stage depends on the previous one. And in each of them, Nursy is by your side, handling the technical work while you focus on your preparation.

International recruiters and healthcare schools partner with Nursy on U.S. licensing. Candidates of many nationalities, across many U.S. states.
Degree validated or your money back.
Of all the nurses we have advised, 100% had their degree validated. This is not a rounded statistic. It is the real number: zero rejections at the validation stage.
If your degree is not validated by the evaluation agency during our advisory work, you receive 100% of the advisory fee back. So far, this has never happened.

Most common questions
Can any nurse validate their degree in the U.S.?
In the vast majority of cases, yes. We serve nurses of any nationality. Nursy performs an eligibility review before you hire any service.
How long does the process take?
From 8 to 18 months from start to license. Studying for the NCLEX in parallel with the bureaucratic stages can significantly reduce the total timeline.
Can I do everything while living outside the U.S.?
Yes. The entire process is done remotely. The only in-person stage is the NCLEX, which can be taken in São Paulo or at any Pearson VUE center worldwide.
Is Nursy an advisory firm or a law office?
Advisory firm. Our focus is exclusively nursing licensing: validation, Board, NCLEX, endorsement, and Career Connect. For visa matters, we refer clients to specialized attorneys.
How does the Validation Guarantee work?
If the degree is not validated during our advisory work, we refund 100% of the advisory fee. To date, no refund has ever been needed.
