<p>Problem:Suspended Freshman year for a fight do I still have a shot </p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>aside from the suspension, id say your record is pretty impeccable! good luck! I dont think a suspension in freshman year is going to influence your acceptance too heavily to be honest, i believe there is a thread somewhere on this site that discusses the influences of suspensions on college's decisions, so id check that out, ill post the link in a sec</p>
