Do you think because it was so recent that my Dean will try and expell me from the program? Also, will the BON not let me sit for boards because it was so recent? I have read that that is a factor in their decision. Thanks

Was your situation like mine? Did you get to sit for the board?

What kind of an attorney? An employment atty?

How do I inform the BON now? Do I wait until I send the app. in? Or do I tell them now? I don't know who to ask for, there is no specific person to call and discuss my situation with. If I tell my Dean, what could happen? Will they kick me out? Either way I am screwed.

I was told that my instructors take up our app. before we graduate and they mail them off. I am thinking the dean will look them over first before mailing them and then she will catch it. Our handbook tells us that we should let them know if we forsee any problems with our application process. MY BON also states that I should mail a letter of recommendation from my Dean in a situation like this. I am not sure if they require it. I know I will have to mail them my court documents and other stuff. I am so in a state of FEAR!

What is your reason? I am so afraid the school will kick me out.

I have been in nursing school and will graduate in Dec., maybe. Over the summer, while NOT in school, I got a misdemeanor of lowest degree. I don't know whether to tell my school or dean. THis may lead to me getting kicked out since it just happend. If i dont' say anything, they will realize it when they review my application to take NCLEx, I will have to check that I have been convicted of a crime. They will then wonder why I didn't tell them earlier. THis is giving me so much anxiety, because of a stupid mistake I made over the summer. I have come so far and don't want to be told I can't finish. What the heck do I do?

I have been in nursing school and will soon graduate, maybe. Over the summer vacation I was convicted of a misdemeanor, lowest degree. I am so in a state of anxiety now about what to do and wheter or not to tell the school. I am scared if I tell the Dean, she will have me expelled from the school and I will not graduate. If I choose to not tell, they will realize it in the end when I go to submit my liscensure application. I will have to check the box saying I have been convicted of a crime. If I do that they will wonder why I did not confront them earlier. What the heck to I do??? I am currenty doing community service and will be on probation for 6 mos. I cannot seem to get any straight answers from BON. Each case is individual.
