I'm a high school sophomore who got in a fight and is suspended for 2 days. I am wondering if I can get accepted as I told a really bad joke and someone got mad at it a couple months ago. The day of the fight I playfully shoved him but he took it seriously and started attacking me, as a result, I got into a fight with him. This is my first suspension on my record; never caused any trouble or harm; all my teachers like me as I'm the class clown who gets high grades and is a "Social butterfly" If I put down the suspension do you think that USMA denies my admission?? Please let me know!!!
Will I Get accepted to Westpoint I just recently got a suspension

Probably not a big problem. Just tell the truth on you application and don't get into further trouble.
Thank you, I was super worried about it as I was worrying so much!

This would be the kind of advice (in word, and especially in spirit) that you should avoid taking.
You misunderstood me. I wasnt advicing not telling the truth. My only point was that suspensions dont always make the students records especially if it wasnt serious. They dont like to ruin a students chance with colleges. It was never meant to imply he shouldnt be upfront with what he did.
