Character and Fitness Question!!

Post by IWantT6 » Mon Mar 07, 2016 7:17 pm

1. Have you ever been subject to verbal or written discipline (informal or formal, and of any type, such as but not limited to warning, reprimand, suspension, dismissal, and/or detrimental impact to any benefit/privilege) for scholastic or other reasons in any of the colleges, universities, graduate or professional schools you have attended (including organizations you have participated in at these instutitions), or by any employer?


Would academic probation be considered under this? I know the wording of this question is different for a lot of schools, but most of them explicitly state academic probation. Should I still say yes and submit an addenda?

I would say yes- scholastic = academic.

Yes. Many moons ago I was once placed on academic probation and I believe this question refers to this type of incident, among others. Better to be safe than sorry and just answer yes. In my case, it was a long time ago, I was a dumb ass and didn't take college seriously, but do not regret it as it was a valuable learning experience.. yada yada.
