Will suspension affect merit aid offers?

<p>And if the guidance counselor says, “Nah, don’t worry about that 2-week suspension for drinking at your junior prom. We’re not going to mention it - so you don’t have to.” . . . then what?</p>

<p>If the kid was drinking, and got caught, and was suspended from school for two weeks, shouldn’t he or she answer truthfully when asked?</p>
