How do colleges look at my expulsion in high school transcript?

<p>Also, I have one more question. I was going to apply to UNC, Michigan, Notredame, Gtech for my early action and should I still try for those schools? or will it be better to wait until regular decision?
I am asking this question because early action is for colleges to accept students who they really like right? So if I have an expulsion in my transcript, would they automatically give me rejection because I won’t be their favorite.(especially in early, there will be bunch of other students who got same or higher score than me and had no troubles in their high school career) If I get a rejection, I cannot even try again in regular decision so right now I don’t know what to do. Help me please.</p>
