  1. Denied CA lvn license for 2 DUI's

    kzimmermann replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Hi StudentnurseNM, Can you tell me what shows up on your background, and what type of background check you did? School programs are actually fairly lenient on admissions: it's the BON that's the...

  2. Denied CA lvn license for 2 DUI's

    kzimmermann replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I haven't even thought about that, but that's a great idea. However, then you get into the territory of Civil Rights and I'm kind of fuzzy on ACLU practices. If you have an interlock device and...

    kzimmermann replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I never included this in my original post, but I wanted to highlight my situation here. I live in Napa. It's pretty interesting here, and all the old-time locals know every back road anywhere near...

    kzimmermann replied to RosePetalss's topic in California Nursing

    Another note for everyone... I've found an apartment close to campus (Adams Point neighborhood), just a little over a mile away. It's pretty good sized, so I'll be more than happy to host study...

    Hi All, I would have written earlier but was out of town. Just a heads up re Immunizations: turns out the immunization forms that were sent to us were out of date. The only major changes are that...

    kzimmermann replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Well said, Tiger747. On a side note, I used to commute with a woman who's husband let the tires bald on their minivan (not that she couldn't have taken care of it, but you know what I mean), an...

    Hey Sahar! I haven't even received my financial aid packet yet (I just left my financial advisor a message). I had played phone tag with her a few weeks ago and she said that SMU was just beginning...

    kzimmermann replied to kzimmermann's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey All - I just got the letter today and I'm waitlisted. I honestly expected a rejection, as my prerequisites weren't stellar. I guess the other criteria was strong. We'll see what
