Hello,
I am moving through an application process for a PhD in the UK. I am an American citizen. I have some traffic violations on my record, but nothing too serious. The only thing I have that is causing me pause is a single criminal violation for theft. At the time the charge was a felony theft, but it was plead down to a misdemeanor. The result of which was 6 months probation, and the guilty please was struck from the record with a probation before judgement ruling. The dates in question are as follows:
Incident Date: 01/22/2017
Court Date: 08/16/2017
Probation expiration date: 02/16/2018
Will this automatically prevent me from being able to get a student visa? Or will it just make it more difficult/ not guaranteed? If it is still possible, any suggestions or advice for how I can improve my chances?
Thanks!
