I recently received my 4th DUI which is a felony in the state of Ohio. I am a nursing student planning to graduate in December. I have successfully completed a treatment program and I attend AA meetings regularly. The state board of nursing has told me they cannot give me any specific answers on this issue until I am ready to take my NCLEX exam. I don't know if continuing my education is a waste of my time and money or not. Can anyone help?

Hello new:

You're out of gas. They ain't going to give you a license.

excon is correct. You aren't going to get your license. You are lucky to have made it this far in nursing school
