<p>My son is starting college in the fall and just received his roommate assignment. I did a google on the roommate and discovered he was arrested in Jan of this year "on possession of a Class D substance and possession with intent to distribute". </p>

<p>Either he lied on his common app or it happened after he sent in the app. He was 18 when he was arrested. I do not want my son rooming with someone who was arrested for trying to deal drugs/pot.</p>

<p>If you are in Salve admissions, I'd like you hear how something like this would go over at your school.</p>

<p>What would you do in this situation?</p>

<p>What will happen to the guy if I tell the school why I do not want my son rooming with him?</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice</p>

<p>FYI - My son is NOT a Salve Regina student. I was simply asking this from a hypothetical standpoint. My son is enrolled at a different Catholic College in the NE region and I asked this as a “what would your school do” question. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>^^This is one of the strangest posts I have ever seen. Why would you pick a random college name and post it on CC where anyone inquiring about this college would get a negative impression?</p>
