I am currently studying for the HESI. I have a domestic violence charge from 2003. Wondering if this will stop me from being accepted? Does anyone have any information about background checks? 0 Likes
socal212, CNA Has 4 years experience. Dec 7, 2020 Is it a misdemeanor DV assault charge? You should really call the school. The Maricopa Community Colleges nursing application says any assault or violent crime misdemeanor charge can disqualify you. https://cdn.maricopa.edu/documents/pdf/MaricopaNursing/nursing_generic_application.pdf (scroll down to page 24). I also have have a misdemeanor charge for a "crime of moral turpitude" I am hoping gets dismissed, so I understand. I would contact GWCC or any of the Maricopa community colleges. 0 Likes
