Probation while in NP school

Published

So while attending NP school (20/26 months complete) I had some rather unfortunate events happen that lead to my rn license being put on probation. My license being on probation violated the policies of the school which lead to my dismissal.

I was wondering if there are NP schools that accept students with their license on probation. Ive invested so much financially and time into NP school. I don't want it all to be for not.

I don't know of a single school that does not require an unencumbered license.

I think you're going to work through those license issues, and even then- having discipline on your licensing history is going to be a deal-breaker for most schools.

I've read a few posts of people who went to school while being on probation. I just am wondering what schools they went to.

Look, I hate to be the bearer of bad news here, but I doubt you're going to find a school that allows this. And quite honestly, that's the way it should be. It's far too large a liability for a school or a clinic/hospital to allow a student with an encumbered license. Once/if you're off of probation you can look into it again.
