If i am accepted to umich through early action and i am caught with weed in my car at school, is this serious enough for them to rescind my spot? this is my first offense ever in or out of school. VP and counselor are vouching for me, and i am thinking about going to a group therapy session. PLEASE GIVE HONEST THOUGHTS THANK YOU
Yes, it’s enough to rescind your acceptance. Whether or not your acceptance will be revoked probably depends upon several other factors including quantity, prior infractions & recommendations.
i did not have very much, absolutely no intention to deal, 100% clean record prior to this, and Vice principal and counselor are both willing to minimize and support my past credentials, saying i am a good person who just made a bad choice
Then you’re probably fine, although this is enough to rescind your offer of admission.
should i tell them in an optional midyear report or wait until my final report after i have paid my deposit, boarding, etc
Please help
Get it out sooner rather than later, or it looks like you’re hiding something. Send them a polite and apologetic email explaining the circumstances of the infraction and what you learned, why it will never happen again. Make sure your GC and VP get in touch with the school and vouch for you.
Ok I am a current college student and have transfered and applyed for many university’s and never once have I been asked on an aplication to explain a misdemeanor charge. Now if this was a felony charge it could be an issue. Another thing it depends on where you were when you got caught with it. If you were caught on a campus with weed well then yeah your toast that’s going on your academic record ( unless your in Washington). Dont stress it if you weren’t at school or on a campus you won’t have to explain anything.
