That is very questionable especially with the possession charge. You may want to ask the board of nursing in your state for information.

I agree with the other response, ask at the nursing office at the school you want to apply because, at least at my school, we are required to do a background check.
Hope all goes well! Good luck!

It’s possible, but expect a lengthy explanation/investigation process and you might be placed on probation for a period of time if they suspect addiction.
