Can I get a nursing license with a D Felony, Grand Theft 3rd degree.

I am going to school for nursing, and unfortunately I have a current charge of grand larceny 3rd degree....a class D felony pending from a previous employer. I am fighting the charge with a court appointed attorney, but I don't have much confidence that my attorney will get the charge dropped or have the charge reduced, and it looks like I will be convicted. I am in my 40s and have never ever been in trouble before, however, my attorney also tells me that I will most likely have to do 1 1/3 to 3 yrs despite the fact that I have repeatedly told him I didnt do it. At this point, restitution and probation seem to be a best case scenario I am hoping for....All of this said, I have been told that because this is not a violent crime, I would be able to get a Nursing license in NY state. The only information I can find about this issue on the net basically states that if the crime is drug or alcohol related or violent then a license would not be issued. Can anyone please tell me about whether my charges will prevent me from getting a nursing license? Thank you for your help!
