I got in trouble for public drunkenness and ended up on disciplinary probation with a mark on my transcript until I graduate (in 3 weeks). I applied to jobs before finding this out and was asked by one of the companies to send a copy of my transcript. What kind of impact will the disciplinary probation mark have on my chances with the employer? Is there anything I can do?
We have no idea how one company will view that.
Be ready to talk to the employer in a straightforward way about what happened and what you are doing differently now. Get out ahead of the story if you know that an employer has requested that transcript.
Keep in mind even if the notation comes “off” your transcript, you will still need to document and explain the incident for grad/professional school or any job application (especially one that you may need a background check) that ask if you had any academic/disciplinary actions taken against you
