<p>does anyone know what the process is like after being suspended from college? i attended a 4-year and got suspended near the end of the 3rd semester. the school let me finish out the semester and then put me on a two year judiciary suspension. I don’t plan on reapplying in spring of 2011, but what will other colleges look at this and think? is this the end of the road? i don’t know or have heard of anyone in this situation, so anything would be a start.</p>
<p>Other schools aren’t likely to accept a student who has been suspended for 2 years unless you were suspended from Bob Jones for something like holding hands with a romantic partner.</p>
<p>Otherwise, schools aren’t going to take a risk with a student that they’ll presume lacks the maturity or impulse control to be able to succeed in college right now.</p>
<p>Better to take off 2 years while working a job or otherwise being productive, and then return to your former school. I know adults who had to do things like that and did return to their original college, graduated, then went on to successful careers, including ones that required postgraduate educations.</p>
<p>I agree with NSM; most schools will honor the suspension and will not admit you during the suspension period and even after that period is over, you will still have a black mark on your record when applying to other schools - which could take a bit of work to overcome (although you may have more luck in being accepted at less selective state schools that have older/returning students or continuing ed programs for working adults - if you show that you have been productive during your suspension period). Also, often, if you return to your original college after the suspension period, and complete your education there without any further problems, they will remove the suspension from your record - which could be something to seriously consider if you are considering postgrad.</p>
