College campuses are meant to be environments for learning and personal growth, but mistakes and misunderstandings can happen. If you or your child are facing criminal charges while attending a university in the Ann Arbor area—such as the University of Michigan or Eastern Michigan University—the consequences can be severe. A conviction could result in university disciplinary action, loss of scholarships, suspension, or expulsion, in addition to standard criminal penalties.
