<p>Is there a report on your arrest? If it states that your parents claimed to have allowed you to drink a glass of wine at 6:30 and your arrest took place at 11pm, and the breathalyzer showed 0.00, then you can write an explanation for your DWI with the college application. Do not make it the topic of your essay, unless the experience has motivated you to do something such as joining the ACLU or SADD or some other volunteer activity. But include all the information (together with supporting evidence if available).</p>
