Licensure and practice rules in New York
AANP classifies New York as a full practice state.

NPs with more than 3,600 hours of practice are currently exempt from those requirements.
New York is not a Nurse Licensure Compact member, so out-of-state RNs apply for a New York RN license by endorsement.
