These are really minor violations or end runs around often mindless rules. OTOH, it shows this individual has persistence, creativity, ingenuity and determination, all qualities that are predictive of a successful academic and post college life. Most college students cannot afford to attend without incurring a lot of debt. As a former professor this is the student I want in my class, the student who wants that education so badly that they really put themselves out there to get it.
