Good Moral Conduct Policy

The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Nursing [BORN] establishes policies (based on MGL c. 112, ss. 74, 74A and 76 and Board regulations at 244 CMR 8.00) for initial licensure as a registered nurse or licensure by reciprocity in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. One of the criteria for application for licensure involves the determination of “good moral character.” Failure to meet this criterion could delay or prevent licensure. Please refer to the Mass.gov website:  https://www.mass.gov/service-details/good-moral-character-requirements-for-nursing-licensure for complete information. It is the student’s responsibility to seek legal guidance with any concerns about meeting these criteria.
