If its just a warning, is it on ur record? If not, then I wouldnt worry unless it affects ur "good standing" statusAnonymous User wrote:Last semester I got a warning from the university for violation some student conduct code, just wondering how this would affect my transfer? or probably should I just give up?

Re: How bad a school discipline action would affect the transfer
probably doesn't matter at all
but if you go to TJSL or something and trumped-up disciplinary charges are their latest anti-transfer innovation i would like to hear the story

Re: How bad a school discipline action would affect the transfer
I don't quiet understand what you mean. first I am not sure if I need to disclose this warning in my c&f, second, if I do disclose, would be a concern for the law school I am transferring to?patogordo wrote:probably doesn't matter at all

Re: How bad a school discipline action would affect the transfer
C&F is something you do to take the bar in a particular state, so it would depend on what state you wanted to practice in. i think they all ask about school disciplinary issues but you'd have to look at the exact wording for your state.Anonymous User wrote:I don't quiet understand what you mean. first I am not sure if I need to disclose this warning in my c&f, second, if I do disclose, would be a concern for the law school I am transferring to?patogordo wrote:probably doesn't matter at all

but that's not really relevant right now. you should look at the transfer application and decide if it requires disclosure.

Re: How bad a school discipline action would affect the transfer
the wording on G-town's ED application C&F is "Have you ever been the subject of any disciplinary action taken by any college or university?", I am wondering if I need to disclose under this? and how bad this would affect me?patogordo wrote:C&F is something you do to take the bar in a particular state, so it would depend on what state you wanted to practice in. i think they all ask about school disciplinary issues but you'd have to look at the exact wording for your state.Anonymous User wrote:I don't quiet understand what you mean. first I am not sure if I need to disclose this warning in my c&f, second, if I do disclose, would be a concern for the law school I am transferring to?patogordo wrote:probably doesn't matter at all

Re: How bad a school discipline action would affect the transfer
I would disclose because the Bar will wonder why you didn't disclose and that will constitute a second knock against you, probably even worse than behavior that led to the warning. As far as whether it will affect the transfer, I don't think anyone here can say for sure -- though there will likely be a few anecdotes out there.

Re: How bad a school discipline action would affect the transfer
I'm curious to know that if one had an INformal warning, and not on their record, do they have to disclose this for the C&F bar-related issue?Anonymous User wrote:the wording on G-town's ED application C&F is "Have you ever been the subject of any disciplinary action taken by any college or university?", I am wondering if I need to disclose under this? and how bad this would affect me?patogordo wrote:C&F is something you do to take the bar in a particular state, so it would depend on what state you wanted to practice in. i think they all ask about school disciplinary issues but you'd have to look at the exact wording for your state.Anonymous User wrote:I don't quiet understand what you mean. first I am not sure if I need to disclose this warning in my c&f, second, if I do disclose, would be a concern for the law school I am transferring to?patogordo wrote:probably doesn't matter at all

ask your state's C&F committee. wear a false mustache so they don't know it's you.Jchance wrote:I'm curious to know that if one had an INformal warning, and not on their record, do they have to disclose this for the C&F bar-related issue?
