I recently got accepted into Chamberlain College of Nursing (NJ CAMPUS). I am a little worried about the background check. I don't have any criminal record but I am a little concerned about the credit check. My credit isn't so great. I have couple credit cards on there since I missed a few payments.
Does anyone know if Chamberlain does credit check as a part of background? Would this affect my entry into the program?

They definitely do a credit check for financial aid: Student Loans for Nursing School | Chamberlain University
Thank you. I understand a credit check is needed for private loans but how likely am I received a call from admissions saying I can't start the program due to bad credit history?
I am not thinking it will be a huge issue, as long as you can secure tuition. You might want to call and ask, though. Interesting question!
