Has anyone gotten accepted to a PA program with a DUI on there record? I got a DUI (misdemeanor) about 7 years ago and am concerned I will not get in because of it. Any insight on this would be appreciated! Thanks!

A friend of mine got in with no problem & her DUI was only 3 years old. Her advice: is to be very careful how you word this on your application. Be honest, but stay away from using the term "DUI" ; instead, cite the violation code number, etc.

Thanks for your advice. Do you happen to know which school(s) accepted her? Maybe I would have a better chance with one of them...
