Hello! I've been searching through the forum and have seen many threads similar to this regarding alcohol related misdemeanors but I wanted advice on my specific situation. I have multiple red flags involving alcohol on my record. The first was in 2016 when I was a freshman in college. I was caught drinking in the dorms and received an institutional action through my university. I am not sure how to describe this on my application as I feel like I had grown since this incident but I received an open container ticket during a college tailgate in the fall of 2019. Both of these were stupid mistakes and I plan to emphasize that in my application/during my interviews but I am not sure how to show growth if I had TWO alcohol related incidents that were so far apart. Please help!! I have no idea how to describe these on my applications or what to write. These tickets were a result of pure stupidity and I am kicking myself for getting in trouble when i barely even drink alcohol.
