Hello everyone, I just got accepted into nursing school and I recently did a background check. What do they look for when they do a background check? I have not been arrested before but I had traffic tickets years ago and my license was suspended years ago. Will these things stop me from starting nursing school?

They look and see if you been guilty of felonies. Traffic tickets will not come up.

Traffic tickets will not show up on the background check and even if they would they would not affect your getting into nursing school. If they did, most of us would probably have issues with getting accepted into nursing school. Best wishes.
Ok ronchelednik and RN403 thank you so much!!
