Yes, it is individual to each state.

I would call and check, but I wouldn't think a ticket for no insurance would keep for from nursing school. I know a felony might as well as a charge that involves drugs, alcohol, sex crimes, theft, violent crimes etc. Here in Texas a no insurance misdemeanor is just a ticket the same a speeding, running a red light, or forgetting to buckle your seat belt.
