<p>So I'm working on my Florida State University application and this is the question:</p>
<p>"Have you ever been charged with a violation of the law which resulted in, or if still pending could result in, probation, community service, a jail sentence, or the revocation or suspension of your driver's license (including traffic violations which resulted in a fine of $200 or more)? You are required to furnish FSU with a list of all violations, and must include a statement telling us what you have learned from your past action(s)."</p>
<p>I've gotten a traffic violation ticket in the amount of $240. So it's over $200, but it did not (can not and will not) result in "probation, community service, jail, or the revocation/suspension of my driver's license" as the question asks. I'm not sure if I am supposed to answer yes or no in this case.</p>
<p>That’s tricky, because it clearly states, “INCLUDING traffic violations which resulted in a fine of $200 or more.”</p>
<p>If it were me, I would call and explain the situation and ask what you should do. Get the person’s name, if they tell you to not show the ticket!</p>
<p>It clearly says “probation, community service, a jail sentence, or the revocation or suspension of your driver’s license” so no, does not apply.</p>
<p>Answer yes if you have any of the following:
-Violation that could or did result in:
----Probation
----Community Service
----Jail
----Revocation/Suspension of Driver’s license
------INCLUDING tickets >$200</p>
<p>I don’t know if my little outline is a good enough visual to illustrate what I mean, but since the “revocation of driver’s license” doesn’t apply to me, then any sub-criteria (ticket being greater than >$200) are automatically inapplicable. If it had said “… OR tickets greater than $200”, it’d be a different story.</p>
<p>But I guess it doesn’t matter anymore, I already chose no and submitted part one of the application and cannot go back.</p>
