If you don't want to attend college or university in U.S for nursing degree, take degree in nursing before you come to U.S from England. You can also ask work permit in U.S if you have england recognize degree in RN or vocational nursing. ( I guess so). I'm studying RN in U.S but not yet in program. It's also a good idea to come and study in U.S for nursing degree. RN is very popular major and in high demand. But some colleges have waiting program which is usu: take about two years to get into the program. It's better to accomplish your study in England and try for work permit visa as nurse. Good luck with your career.
