I have a 25 year old old felony conviction for Robbery, I have not been in trouble since then, I reside in Texas and would like to pursue a career in Nursing (LVN), am I eligible for this field, I also have 78 credits in Health Care Studies toward my BA.

I'm sorry, but the nursing profession frowns on people with felonies. It would be wise of you to seek another profession prior to sinking more money into this career choice.
