How serious is this? The Common Application for next year, for example, says:



Have you ever been adjudicated guilty or convicted of a misdemeanor, felony, or
other crime? Yes or No

[Note that you are not required to answer “yes” to this question, or provide an explanation, if the criminal adjudication or conviction has been expunged, sealed, annulled, pardoned, destroyed, erased, impounded, or otherwise ordered by a court to be kept confidential.]



If you are able to answer no under these conditions, do so. Otherwise, say yes and simply append a document explaining your circumstances. This would not be a good essay topic as, while you may or may not be regretful, it is highly cliche and not particularly life changing.
