Help!!! I need advise

[lovetolovehim]

Hello I'm currently taking classes to become a RN. My dream is to become a nurse but 10 years ago I was arrested. I was arrested for assault and battery and the charged was reduce to a misdemeanor of obstructing an officer. Let me start off by saying I did not assault anyone but I was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Since then I made sure to never get into trouble or hang with others that are not on the right path. My question is will this prevent me from getting a license as a RN?

I would hate to continue with school and not be able to get my license. Any advise would be appreciated.

Thought I should let you know, as of 1/31/2012 I officially received a license number.. On the board website it says probation with restrictions. I got a job offer yesterday and accepted it. Tomorrow I go in for finger printing...pretty nervous about that!!!! I told the DON about my case a little bit n she seemed ok with it. Hope all goes well tmrw and I can start my job Monday! My license is under restriction for a minimum of one year.... There's a few continuing education classes I have to take and a couple other things. I was way stressed out about it all before but starting to eel a little relief. Im just happy I was able to get a job 15 days after having my license!!! Let's hope tomorrow goes well! Did you start school yet?!
