<p>pretty good essay </p>
<p>at new school i have 4.0 gpa</p>
<p>can i get in UCI UCSD</p>
<p>I know my chances are almost 0 but i just want feedbak</p>
<p>0 chance sry</p>
<p>heh ic thanks</p>
<p>sure, if you don't do ex anymore</p>
<p>acutally i never did ex, how i got caught with e on me is a story that no one will ever believe :)</p>
<p>I could believe you...</p>
<p>However, don't try to justify yourself when writing your explanation to the colleges. They would rather see that you have learned "something" from this experience and you deeply regret for whatever had happened.....</p>
<p>Also useful info from CC:</p>
<p>Is teh 3.8 weighted? If yes, that alone will probably mean a no at SD. If you're in the top 10% of your class and wrote a good essay, UCI could be a possibility.</p>
<p>I would like to belive you aren't screwed for a, hopefully, one-time mistake.</p>
<p>The best thing to do is email each admissions office and ask them what their views and policies on such matters are. </p>
<p>Speculation on these boards does you nothing unless you find someone who was in a similar situation.</p>
<p>Good luck man...and just say no. ;-) Kidding.</p>
<p>haha X ur hardcore</p>
<p>unless you applied to berkeley... say that it's a typo and you smoked marijuana instead of taking X. then you're in for sure ;)</p>
<p>I don't think you can get into the UCs period, having been expelled... I mean, how can you even have any transcripts mailed if you're no longer a student at any institution?</p>
<p>Hmm, i hope you still have a chance. I honestly don't know how seriously colleges take something like this. I have a good friend who's a genius, but he was expelled from his old school. I wonder how much expulsion affects an applicant. . .hmm</p>
<p>i would call the school and see.</p>
<p>You don't have to even report your expulsion to the UC's. They don't require any teacher recs, counselor's reports, or anything. Everything is self reported and there is NOWHERE on the application that asks what type of disciplinary actions you have received. It's a don't ask, don't tell policy. I sincerely hope you chose not to tell.</p>
<p>Hmm thanks for the positive feedback guys i really appreciate it. I do attend school, however it is a school out of the district. I have a 4.0 unwieghted there and although they dont offer many aps aside from calculus ap which im taking.</p>
<p>Hmm...dunno if they will run a background check on you though. You didn't say if this indiscretion involved legal trouble though. Is this a public school you were expelled from. If it is, that is bull**** and you should call the ACLU. What you do in your private life is none of a public school's business.</p>
<p>yeah... i think they only have that kind of power if they catch you on-campus.</p>
<p>yes it is a public school what happened was i was waiting on a corner for my ride near the school (completely off campus) and i see 4 guys running thier asses off because they vandalized some tree and 2 security gaurds approach me and the rest is history. I guess life sux and i just need to deal with it lol thanks everyone</p>
<p>No security guard should be able to execute a search off, or even on, the premises which they are charged with securing.</p>
<p>I am a security guard and can vouch for this. If I was at a post where you did a search, it was only a mandatory search of everyone leaving the building's bags. You are not allowed to touch anything of the person's belongings and are not allowed to search their person. If something does come up illegal, or person refuses mandatory search then the police are called.</p>
<p>Lol, I'm really sorry for your unfortunate event, but the vandalizing of a TREE is way to funny. What is wrong with the world today!</p>
