Hello everyone!
So, the day before my first day of college (freshman year), the only person I knew at this school told me to come with her to a dorm, and there ended up being alcohol. I didn't drink, and I left with her and a couple of her friends about 2 hours later. I ended up getting an institutional action by being placed on disciplinary probation for alcohol, had to complete volunteer hours, write a reflection essay, and go to counseling, and do an alcoholedu course. Also, it's not on my transcript. I know I have to answer "yes" for the institutional action section even though I wasn't there when the RAs came to the room and didn't drink, but do you think it will affect me a lot as an applicant? I've learned a lot from this experience, and I've definitely grown from it. Thank you for your responses in advance!
Additionally, are there any stories of peopling getting accepted with that on their record?
