She needs to talk honestly with the instructor. The outcome may be better than she thinks. No need to quit until told the worst.

I think she meant that she will pass the advice you gave on to the person who has the problem. :)

see our stickied thread at top of page : nursing li censure with a criminal history

desiring to change behaviour, doing well in nursing classes, owning up and making amends for this mistake will go along ways with bon review ---which can only be done upon program graduation and submission license request to bon. it's more common to see new licensee on 6 months probation for minor offense... i would not leave program over this issue but learn and grow from it.

new jersey board of nursing disciplinary and licensure ...
