Hi alex, I know this is very old post and you may not check this site much anymore, but I am in a similar situation and was wondering how many of the schools you applied to (or which specific schools, if you feel comfortable saying) did not ask you to disclose your history of academic misconduct on their application. I am currently trying to get my charges appealed, but it's not looking great... so I'm thinking that unfortunately my best bet would be to apply to more schools that don't ask about it.

Hello! I'm new here... So, long story short, I've been accused of academic misconduct in my sophomore year of undergrad (I'm not actually guilty). I was accused of unauthorized collaboration on a homework assignment in a programming class, and was given a small grade penalty and put on disciplinary probation for one calendar year... I'm currently fighting really hard to appeal these punishments. According to my university's academic misconduct committee, writing about the possible impacts of the punishments on my future in my appeal statement may help my case (for whatever reason...). So, would anyone happen to know about what portion of graduate schools ask students to disclose history of academic misconduct on their applications? I've heard that most do, but some do not, however I'm not sure really how common it is for a graduate school to not ask for this information. Basically, if I can't get this appealed, am I going to be super screwed everywhere, or am I going to be super screwed just in most places? Thanks in advance for any input !
