transfer while on non-academic suspension

<p>I am suspended from January 2011-Jaunuary 2012 at Mass College of Pharmacy doing the 3 year nursing program. I stole some kids wallet, used his credit card and swiped it. Im truely sorry n regret my action, thats y the school didn't kick me out and the kid didnt press charges. i dun wanna hear anythin about how horrible that is, cuz i kno... :-( </p>

<p>I just ask my skool, n they said re-admittion is not gaurentee. I dun wanna go to a community college and get an associate degree cuz i want at least a bacholor degree. N i was looking at simmons college, they got a 5 yr master degree. im filling up the application as a transfer student, n it asks if I ever got suspension due to academic misconduct or behavioral misconduct n i hav to explain it. wat r the chances that they will still accept me if i tell the truth? n they ask for recommendation from academic advisor or dean n 1 of ur faculty members. I kno its not right to lie but i rly want to get in this skool... can someone plz help me plz</p>

<p>For the rest of your life, you will have to explain this sad part of your academic history whenever you apply for admission to a degree program at any college or university in the US. Your best option is to make an appointment with the transfer admissions officer at the college/university you are interested in, and sit down with that person so that you can discuss your situation.</p>

<p>Lying is never a good idea. If (when) the school discovers it, they will probably expel you as soon as possible. If you really are sorry for what you did, in your application be candid about what happened and explain what you learned from your mistake. (Assuming you did.)</p>

<p>And please don’t write like you typed your post, it really hurts the eyes.</p>

<p>Community college is a great step toward getting your 4-year degree, so don’t knock it. Many students use CC as a way to rehabilitate their GPA, their academic records/suspensions, etc. A 4-year college can see then that your time at CC was put to good use…rather than the new transfer college being stuck trying to figure out if the student has reformed, at least there are a few semesters of solid CC work recorded (with no other problems) for the college to consider when assessing this priorly suspended student. Otherwise it is “oops!–let me into YOUR 4-year college and see if I have reformed.” 4-year colleges generally like to see <em>proof</em> of capability, maturity, reform, etc… thus the CC is your proving ground.</p>
