DUI and College
A probationary sentence, if you were to receive one, would carry with it conditions that you could meet from your school location, most likely, because courts and district attorneys recognize the inherent safety in not interfering with defendants' schooling. If you're thinking about ARD, explain to your legal counsel and to the DA's office in Montgomery County that you go to school in NYC. I'm sure they deal with this situation all the time with out-of-state students who get DUI charges. Don't automatically assume that you'll get probation on a first offense, especially if you choose the accelerated rehabilitative disposition (ARD) program. Sounds like you're likely to get a very short license suspension and come out with a clean record at the end.
Scroll down to the ARD information on the first link for Montgomery County. The Lancaster County ARD information (second link) was far more thorough and will likely be very similar to the program offered in your county. Definitely consult with an attorney to make sure you're fully informed about your options and rights before enrolling in that program or making any other sort of plea or deferred adjudication arrangement. Good luck to you!
