DQ Question

[BP03]

thank you for your responses

I seriously doubt that they will expect that you should have ratted out every underage college party you knew about or simply have sat in your dorm room alone for 4 years.

If they don't comprehend that these activities are common place in college and virtually unavoidable then you don't want to work there.

yes i agree. something that small is petty.. there's got to be more to the story... was it a party with alcohol and hard drugs?

Yours is a pretty agency specific question. In other words, you'd need to ask the agency you're applying to. Not trying to blow you off, but I tend to agree with Chief Wiggum's point concerning ratting out the others at the party. My point is this. Yah, underage drinking is a violation, but it's not the crime of the century either. And yah, I wouldn't expect you to spend four years cloistered in your dorm room. That doesn't make for a "well rounded" college experience. If the agency in question wants it's applicants to be graduates of a monastary, I guess that's okay, but I think I'd apply elsewhere if they in fact DQ you for the reason(s) you cited.
