Arrested and rehab.

Just as important is financial aid. You are not going to qualify for any federally-backed financial aid because of your drug conviction.



At least two schools (Swarthmore and Yale) have policies that will replace federal aid funds for students with a drug conviction.

Of course, the catch is that you have to get accepted (or re-instated) to Swarthmore or Yale following a drug conviction, which would require a pretty convincing story of rehabilitation.

I agree with others here. It would be very difficult for any of us strangers to offer advice for someone in such unusual circumstances.
