C&F Issue Question

Post by laker » Thu Mar 31, 2016 7:32 pm

Hey guys,

I have a question about a C&F issue I'm facing. Many moons ago during my 2nd year at university I made a very stupid decision and biked home from the library with a "no smoking" sign I found outside (campus property). On the bike ride home I was stopped by the police, questioned, (not arrested) and given a ticket for petty theft. The charges were later dropped when I completed an education program and was placed on probation by my university.

I ended up graduating with a >3.9 gpa and after a lot of hard work have been PTing >170.

It was an immature move that I made and will face consequences for. Obviously I will be disclosing all of this in my applications. Simply put, I am wondering how much this could affect my chances for admission to a T14 law school. I'm also wondering how this could affect potential scholarship money.

Thanks a bunch 8)

This will probably be a non-issue for both admissions and scholarship chances.
