Hi, I’m applying to UCs this year, but I’ve really been frightened of not getting in bc of 2 incidents. Both were part of extracurriculars related to school.

In the first one, I was given the task of spray painting some art on a wooden board with a partner. Halfway into this task, my partner dared me to spray paint a curve to complete the smiley face he had started with 2 dots. Of course, against my better judgement, I drew the curve. For this incident, I’m unsure if my school put this on my record, though I know they were aware of it. My punishment was handled by my club, who told me I couldn’t go to an event.

The second incident was me playing a prank on another team in a competition and taking their notes. The school saw this as cheating, and this was put on my record. However, since it was an extracurricular, it’s supposedly not being sent to colleges.

Now, my question is that what should I do when applying to UCs. Should I fess up even though that to my knowledge, these incidents might not be sent to colleges if I get accepted into one of the UCs? Thanks.
