Thats about the only thing you can do. Pretty much your screwed if there is a felony of any sort on your record.ethyl said:How serious of a felony is it? If it's trivial, hire a lawyer, dish out the dough and get that thing expunged from your record.

YESkpforce said:I have been convicted of felony when I was 18 yrs old in 1998's and 1999's for indecent exposer and lewd conduct on public. This was back in freshman year when I was still bumb enough to perform such as ewd act with my college dormmate asan act of prank. Basically, my dormmate and I were recording ourselves performing various prank such as masturbating on public on the video tape to make stupid MTV show like Jackass. First time we got caught it was misdemeanor but second time we got caught we all got felnoy charge for it. Currently, I am working wiht my lawyer to reduce it down to misdemenor and we will eventuall expunge the all the criminal records. But becaue this was considered as sexual crime, I have to register as sex offender with CA state.
Can any body tell me if this is going to be end of my dream to be a pharmacist?

BiOGoly said:Don't take this the wrong way dude, but in brutal honesty you couldn't be more screwed if you had a first degree manslaughter conviction. In most states a convicted felon would have trouble getting ANY job (dishwasher, floor sweeper), but as a convicted sex offender ???
Your options are: 1. Alaskan kingcrab boat 2. Leave the country.
I'd take door number two, but you might have trouble qualifying for a passport.

twester said:My reaction was negative to both. I don't believe in zero tolerance policies for exhibitionism or for DUI. I think one offense might be an honest indiscretion or lapse in judgement. Two offenses usually indicates a problem.
I get the feeling you're calling us prudes. I can't speak for anybody else, but it's shocking how un-prudish I am. I guess it's my fault that I demand the right to choose when I view a sex act or to ride my bike down the street without fear of being struck by the village idiot.
BiOGoly said:No one commented objectively on the "act" in question, or whether it was better or worse than a DUII from some kind of moral standpoint. The question was how easy it is to recover from (and possibly be admitted to a health professions program).
I have felony charge for something stupid. However, is felony charge impact on your admission to pharmacy school? Is it also affect when you get a State license?
You can never hide the felony charge - it will always be found on the fingerprint check.
If you were charged, but found not guilty, then you'll have no problems. If you were found guilty, they you might have problems.I have felony charge for something stupid. However, is felony charge impact on your admission to pharmacy school? Is it also affect when you get a State license?
I am new to this forum; a friend of mine is a member here and she encouraged me to ask my question...hoping I will get a response that will help me decide what to do.
I was recently accepted to pharmacy school and I had to submit a form agreeing to a criminal background check. I don't have any convictions, but I do have an arrest for possession of marijuana from 7 years ago during which they took fingerprints. The charges were later dismissed. Does anyone here know if this will cause them to revoke my admission? I'm so happy to finally get on the road to my dream and I'm terrified it's all going to be taken away.
Do they only look at court records? in other words, convictions and/or trials? or do they check arrest records as well even if charges were never brought?
Also, do they take into consideration how long ago it was and that there is nothing else on the record?
