what was the crime? Some HR managers may be willing to look past it if it's unrelated to your profession.

Dunno. Good luck though! :)
Mine was misdemeanors in SC and I got my license. I haven't started looking for a job yet (because I earn more $ at my current job!) and even then, I will start in SC since that is where my husband is stationed....and then I will move back home after he retires (in a few short years)...

What nursing school did you attend? I have applied to Everest and received a hit on my fingerprints. The school indicated that it has to be cleared through Corporate after it has been reviewed. I am praying hard that I still be able to get into the May program. Wayne County circuit court indicated that I have to come and fill out some papers and get some copies to get it process at the Michigan State Police Department.

Some things take time to make it through the system.
Self report that felony conviction to the FL BoN, then come tell us if you got to keep that license.
