Protecting Your Academic Future
Criminal convictions during college can lead to severe consequences beyond legal penalties. Whether you are a student at the University of Central Arkansas, Hendrix College, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, Central Baptist College or another institution, a criminal charge can threaten your academic standing and future opportunities.
Possible repercussions of a criminal conviction include suspension, expulsion, loss of financial aid or scholarships and removal from campus housing or athletic teams. After graduation, these charges can make it difficult to obtain employment, pass background checks or pursue graduate studies.
