Underage Drinking And The College Program

[jaredcummings]

Hi Everyone!

I am so excited to be applying next year for the DCP fall 2021! I have been waiting to do this since I was a freshman in high school.
Unfortunately, I made the mistake of drinking under the age of 21, and I got caught by the police.
I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience as me, or knows... do I have no chance of getting into the program now because of this being on my record?
Thank you!

Usually, applications don’t require you to report misdemeanors on your juvenile record. Since those records are under seal, usually, I’m not sure how they would find out about it.
