Applying to college and discipline reports

Anonymous
MY DS has level 1 Autism spectrum disorder and ADHD, he has 3.5 Unweighted GPA. SAT SCORES 1220
He was giving ISS back in 8th grade for messing around doing a science lab. and in 9th grade he was suspended for "fighting" the official word that on SIS is (BSC13 Engaging in reckless behavior the creates a risk of injury to self or others), He was "wresting" with his friends.
In 10th grade and 11th grade, he was never suspended but he has a few referrals for Interfering with learning in the classroom. Will that drop the chances he has into getting accepted to GMU? I don't think he is ready to go to a school that far away.

Of those things, the only one that he might have to report is the 9th grade suspension. And if he can write a short paragraph about what he learned and how it hasn't happened again, I doubt it will keep him out of GMU. I assume you know about its autism support program?

Ask school counselor to explain it well in the letter, he should be fine.

GMU is not an easy admit with those stats (depending on the major).

College will never know. Unless he was expelled or arrested at school, they won't know.

Depends what school. Fcps reports no disciplinary issues.
