<p>I need your advice on how to address the university about my problem</p>
<p>Depends on reason for expulsion.</p>
<p>i cussed out a teacher for what i thought was an unfair disciplinary action and it got me expelled the thing is that it is not a legitimate reason for expelling someone. i was defiant towards authority, but i think the ap hates me and i lied during my reinstatement hearing saying that i insulted the teacher saying i called him a dumb you know what.</p>
<p>expelled for cursing? wow. i would think suspension at most</p>
<p>The first thing you have to do is get rid of the mindset that you should never have been expelled. Even if it’s true, talking about it just makes you look like you’re bitter.</p>
<p>for sure i wont sound bitter when i write to them. i just dont know whether or not they’re going to believe me. hopefully they look at my grades and see that my grades in ap classes are far better than regular classes. also i think i passed the ap gov test so it maybe reassuring.</p>
<p>Well, why wouldn’t they believe you?</p>
<p>I mean you admit to the fact you cursed off a teacher, and then you lied when you had the opportunity to reverse the expulsion.</p>
<p>i dont know i kind of think this is a procedural kind of thing cause that’s what the expulsion was and it was my ap who lied not me. i literally told the schoolboard that my ap was lying and how it’s unfair to base your judgement on a hearing panel that is prone to just talk negatively about me and don’t know me as a person yet they still didn’t give me a chance.</p>

<p>If everything you’ve claimed here(key points: you cursed off a teacher and the teacher lied to have you expelled) is true, then just tell the college you’re attending the truth. I personally do not think you will get your admission rescinded.</p>
<p>Well I would agree with Math except for the fact I assume you are getting a high school diploma from some other school or district? Almost all schools require you to receive your diploma as a condition for your acceptance.</p>
<p>Tell the college the truth. Just don’t confuse “there” and “their” like you did in the title of this post.</p>
<p>alright thanks for the advice. i’m just going to tell the truth and see what happens form there. Eliyahu2123 i am attending independent studies right now to complete the last 3 credits i need. you think they’ll take into consideration the fact that i have far better grades in ap classes than in regular classes?</p>
<p>The college will be more concerned about your potential for being disruptive – such as becoming angry and cursing at a professor or administrator or even worse, getting into fisticuffs with someone while under the influence-- than they’ll care about your grades.</p>
<p>should i tell them that i have been suspended too, twice this year for the same thing every time, teachers at my old school would be total jerks to me for no reason and impede of basic rights so i retaliated. the attitude of teachers towards students who work 10 minutes away from mexico are completely different compared anywhere else north.</p>
<p>Sure, tell them. Colleges always like to make sure they have students who have been repeatedly suspended for cursing out teachers who the students think are jerks. (I’m being sarcastic).</p>
<p>I agree with Northstarmom – your destructive potential means more than your grades. Quite honestly, I wouldn’t want to accept you. From what I’ve seen, you have serious anger management issues and blame your problems on teachers. I’d be worried about you attacking someone at the university.</p>
