i want to get into radiography,but i think someone told me i cant get into the courses if i have a criminal record...is this true? depends on the crime. It also depends if you disclose it or try to hide it. if it's felony you can't. misdemeanor you can. Probably depends on exactly what the crime was. I don't see where shop lifting would be a problem but armed robbery would.
Sometimes, under certain conditions criminal records can be cleared up. Check this link for example. Also google "expungement" for more.

Supposedly we are a nation of generous people always willing to give a second chance....good luck you might be able to get into the cources but in Minnesota I know that you cannot get a job with a criminal record you can't even get a DWI and work in a medical field |
