[QUOTE="Teelaw111, post: 210426, member: 40441"] Its was neither it was a public order offence and it resulted in a fine. I had disclosed it at the time and then during a character and suitably assessment where further questions were asked. At the same time my university at the time referred me to the SRA for another incident, which i don’t remember that well. I withdrew from my studies due to mental health issues. 12 years later and applying for admission they emailed say “ my character and suitability needs to be considered further as your regulatory history has highlighted an issue” . They have not said what the issue is. I can only assume it was that. I never received any formal closure or no further action or a response from SRA after I stated i was withdrawing from my studies. So yeah it is a bit of a peculiar one . I will take your advice and seek legal advice and instruct a solicitor. Thanks for replying Jessica :) [/QUOTE]
