<p>I am currently attending college as an undergraduate student and am in a very unique position. I ran into an unlucky streak and found myself in trouble with campus security three times in the first month. The school has informed me that i will either be facing a one semester or two semester suspension. I have a few options with this though. The first choice is to withdraw and transfer for the spring without the incidents on my record. Another is to accept the suspension and come back in the spring or next fall. Lastly i can appeal the suspension to an appeal board. Although if I appeal i loose the chance to withdraw without the suspensions on my record. My mom has already called some schools that I got into previously and said they would most likely re accept me. I'm very conflicted on what to do mostly because if i win the appeal i will be on a strict probation in which if i get unlucky or mess up one more time i will be expelled. I dont know if I will be able to do that. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice. Thanks</p>
<p>By “getting unlucky,” do you mean getting caught? Are you willing to change your behavior so that this won’t happen again?</p>
<p>I wasn’t looking for a life lesson. I did mess up yes but i tried to stay out of trouble. I was more looking for advice not criticism.</p>
<p>Three times in one month is a red flag. Perhaps you were an innocent by-stander, perhaps you were testing the limits now that you are on your own, perhaps each time was for a very different, and unrelated reason. Only you know what you were up to and why. The reason(s) for the behavior(s) that landed you in trouble with campus security will indicate to you the best options for your future. </p>
<p>Wishing you all the best!</p>
