Character and Fitness

[sma437]

Hello,

For those Character and Fitness questions that ask about violations of any law and advise to include "traffic tickets," would that include parking tickets? I think I saw on one application that it said not to include parking tickets, but I didn't know if there was a general consensus not to include those, or do, when the questions just references traffic tickets.

It actually depends on the exact wording used by each school, which is different in each app (annoyingly so). If you have to report it (and for some you do), it's zero cause for concern. Parking tickets are irrelevant, but if you got one and they ask, yous till need to mention it to avoid any future issue. Just read the question to the letter in order to know what to do.

Thanks!
