Background checks

Hi guys I was wondering when you apply for the nursing program will a background check be done? And if so would an arrest hurt my chances? :/

I made a stupid decision about 2years ago that I terribly regret. A friend and I shoplifted some items and were arrested but our records were clean before that so the judge allowed us to amend for it by paying restitution and doing community service, which I am awfully grateful for. The case was dismissed but the PA told me that the arrest will remain on my record. Will this greatly decrease my chances and hold me back? :(

    If it was a charge from when I was a minor do I have to let the BON know?

    If you were in fact charged as a juvenile , in juvenile court, then no, you do not, here in Cali. But I would go down to the court house and make sure that your record is sealed. You have to have it sealed here in Cali, it isn't done automatically. Have you tried doing a live scan? It might not even come up
