Whether you will be admitted to school due to your convictions will likely be up to the individual institution to which you apply. Your potential licensing as an RN is regulated by the CA Board of Registered Nurses.

Technically speaking you are facing time if your probation is violated. Check your probation order as you may have been told to report any law violations to the court, including citations.
