Agree with this, don't let the others scare you any more.  Also agree with asking the counselor at the prior school for advice- you have nothing to lose, and could gain valuable insight [/quote]

+1.  Look at the policies of each college. Every school has a slightly different policy, but most schools have stopped requiring disclosure of disciplinary records unless they are of a criminal nature or impact academics (i.e., cheating). It was argued that the old policies had a disproportionate impact on minority students, since the numbers show they have a higher incidence of disciplinary actions.

Clarify that the school transcript will simply show that your student withdrew. If so, unless there is a criminal record, the colleges have no way of knowing why he chose to leave. Submit the on line transcript. If the college asks, tell the truth, but I believe they are unlikely to ask. [/quote]

To clarify — look on line at the policy of each school re: what is required to be reported. Change of school is likely, but disciplinary actions may or may not be, depending on the nature of the incident. I wouldn’t email and ask — that will just raise red flags. [/quote]
