in your situation, is the person convicted in court, in trial, or not? Is the offense recorded in an application? Or is it nown to the victim(s) only?
When the information has not been disclosed and is known only by the perpetrator and the victim, yes the person may get into a selective university. That’s why speaking up is important, because the perpetrator may well commit crimes again.
When the information is in an application file or the person has been convicted in court, odds are so low as to be inexistent.
Note that there’s a legal obligation for the counselor not to hide this type of problem unless the school has a policy that allows checking “can’t answer” the generic “suspended or expelled” question - and that doesn’t mean “sex offender”.
If the question is, can we imagine there is a sex offender on the UMich campus, the answer is yes, if it was not mentioned in his file, if not caught before, if the victim went to the university rather than the AA police, etc.
