phillies, I think that depends a lot on what the "write up" by the RA was for. If it means you were arrested and have a criminal record, WP will need to know. If it was for something else, it may or may not show up on your student record or transcript I suppose. Anything on your school record will of course be seen by USMA admissions. If it was something minor, I seriously doubt WP will find out about it unless you ask your RA to write you a letter of recommendation. If it would be seen as an Honor Code violation at USMA, I personally believe you would be better off coming clean with it in your app, esp. if it is something that is bothering your conscience. USMA is not looking for perfect kids, but for men and women of character. They know applicants are going to have made mistakes. I have seen others ask similar questions on this forum, and the advice has usually been to use that in your app essay questions, stating what you learned from your mistake and how it has changed your behavior for the better. Just my two cents....
