I'm new to tis site looking for advice hopefully or to see if going to nursing schoolwas a complete waste of my time and money. I graduted from an ADN program in 2009 and I have tow felony convictions but I was denied in florida to take my NCLEX after I applied and paid my money because of a new statue that they came out with in July 2009. Now i'm unemployed witha degree i might not be able to use. This sucks but anyway...............
hello everyone glad to be on this site to gather information and to meet new people....:fight:
Welcome!
I'm surprised your ADN program did not advise you regards to your felony convictions?
at the time i had applied they said that everything was ok. now that they have passed this new statue it affects new nuse and nurses that already have licenses when they renew unless it has been 15 years
Welcome to the site, MissPinky! I'm glad to meet you.
I'd been looking at the IL Nurse PracticeAct, and noticed their list of what would 'hold up licenses'. I wish you luck.
I hope to see you around!

:60: Welcome to the site. Have you looked into other states or are there any avenues open to you after completing some kind of requirements? I wouldn't let the degree just go for nothing without trying another possibility. Good luck.
well i'm now looking into other states now. will repost if anything new happens....thanks u guys i need luck right now
