When college students are charged with crimes in Texas, they not only have to be concerned with criminal prosecution, they must also consider how their criminal charges will affect their ability to continue receiving an education at their institution. A conviction may lead to possible suspension or expulsion from a university or other institution of higher learning.
Even when guilty pleas seemingly result in little more than fines, there can be several unforeseen long-term consequences to any kind of conviction. For this reason, it is critical for any alleged offender currently enrolled in a college in Texas to have legal counsel willing and able to fight for the best possible outcome that preserves a student’s academic career.
