Backround Question?

Hi everyone, I have just registered for fall semester and I have three more classes before I can apply to nursing school A&P I and II and MICRO. I have a pretty good GPA and I'm really looking forward to this semester, but I was wondering if I should even get my hopes up in following through with my nursing dream. I have a felony conviction from 2004 when I was young and dumb. My license has been suspended before as well. My conviction has been expunged and no longer shows up when I apply to normal jobs that do background checks. But I know I could never be in law enforcement so I was wondering if it will be the same with nursing. So I was hoping for some helpful feedback. AS to weather I should just give up, ask before or after I finish my pre-reqs, or when that question comes up just check no like I do at normal jobs? Also, If I do ask who should I ask not sure who to talk to about this. Thank you, any feedback will be helpful and greatly appreciated.

    When I had my background check come up, all the addresses of where I have lived were when I was over the age of 18--I'm assuming from this, that the background check is looking for over the age of 18 stuff. Also, I believe there is a way you can explain your situation to whoever is in charge of the acceptance process.

    Sounds like you were not yet 18 when you were convicted...and if that's true, then you may be okay. But you should still check with your Dean at the school.
