Disciplinary History

Have you ever been adjudicated guilty or convicted of a misdemeanor, felony, or other crime? (Note: You are not required to answer "yes" to this questions, or provide an explanation, if the criminal adjudication or conviction has been expunged, sealed, annulled, pardoned, destroyed, erased, impounded, shielded or otherwise ordered by the court to be kept confidential.)*

Please explain below, giving the approximate date of each incident, the circumstances, and reflects on what you learned from the experience.

Electronic Signature

I understand that, if I am accepted for admission, I will be expected to do the work required for each course for which I have registered and will receive a grade based on that work. I further understand that I will be classified as a non degree-seeking student, not as a candidate for the Goucher degree. I understand that I may choose to audit any course, and, therefore, waive my right to a grade for that course.

I understand that submitting this form is the equivalent to a signature.
