  2. I would meet with the director of nursing at your school and be completely open and upfront about this. In my opinion (I have two misdemeanors and had to wait 5 years past conviction date to begin)...
  3. Does a Ca livescan show juvenile record?

    I am in MI and my livescan showed my juvenile record but I was fingerprinted for it. I really cannot give you a definite answer but livescan is very thorough and it is a good possibility. It is best...
  4. When giving up is not a option

    Like the other posters have said, try to get insight from your BON. Sometimes they may give you some information. If they won't, try contacting Deans or DON at numerous colleges in the state and ask...

  6. I am so sorry for all you have gone through and I truly empathize with your situation. I pray you are able to get licensed and practice nursing and I STRONGLY believe that due to these circumstances...
  7. Hi all, I am in nursing school and will graduate in 2016. I have two theft-related misdemeanors on my record. First a juvenile 3rd degree retail fraud (2003) and larceny under $200 (2008). Both...
  8. Thanks for your responses. Yes, I have contacted the BON several times, and like Kristen said, everything is evaluated on a case-by-case basis and they will only give an answer once you graduate and...
  9. Chrisbauerwrat, thanks so much for your input. May I ask, did MI give you a probationary license or any restrictions? I am concerned that if I am granted a license, they may put restrictions on it...

  13. MI DUI- Will I Get Liscensed?

    I have been looking at this post for other comments. I am in MI also and have a theft record and was looking for insight as well. Please help if you know anything about the MI
  14. Honestly, if I were you, I would disclose it. To be frank, if you hide it and they find it, you most likely will not get the job. If you explain yourself in the interview, they will value your honesty...
  15. I empathize with you and the situation you are in. Mine is the exact same but I have 2 theft misdemeanors. As there will really be no certain way of knowing before submitting your application, just...
  16. The other commenters are right. You need to forgive yourself and move on. Let the past be just that. If you plead guilty, try to get it expunged when the time allows. In the meantime, beef up your...
  17. If the livescan came back clear and the charges were dismissed, I do not think you have anything to worry about. Livescan does not hide information. To be frank the only thing you would possibly have...

    Sorry that you are going through this. Get a good license defense attorney who will fight for you and represent you if
  19. I am in MI and just beginning nursing school with theft on my record. Are there any people who have been denied licensure by the MI BON? If so, what was the conviction and details of your case? I am...
  20. Check with a local attorney regarding an expungement. This will be your best option. In most cases, schools will accept a student with a criminal past if the statutes of that conviction are past. For...
