Maybe, but it is not a good idea. If it should be found that you lied, there can be additional conduct charges or consequences.
Generally not.
Not necessarily. Conduct proceedings conducted by the University are subject to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Generally, under FERPA conduct records may not be released or disclosed without the expressed written permission of the student whose conduct record is being sought unless provided by law. Release of student conduct records is permitted without prior consent in the following cases: to University officials with legitimate educational interests and to parents of a student if the student violates the drug or alcohol policy and is under 21 years old. Additionally, victim/s of an alleged crime of violence or of an alleged violation of the sexual misconduct guidelines have a right to learn the outcome of those cases.
Additional sanctions may be added and a hold may be placed on your record. In some cases, failure to complete sanctions may result in suspension or expulsion. In addition, a hold will be placed on your registration and records and one may not be able to sign up for classes or get access to one’s transcript. Remember that sanctions are placed as a result of your violation of the Rules of Conduct, and are designed to educate you about the expectations and norms of the University community.
Your conduct record will only be accessible to them if you provide written permission allowing it.
