What is "expulsion"?

Expulsion is the formal removal of a student from a school or educational institution as a result of serious misconduct or violation of rules. It is a disciplinary action taken when a student’s behavior is deemed unacceptable, often involving actions such as cheating, violence, or repeated breaches of conduct. Expulsion is typically considered a last resort, after other disciplinary measures have been attempted. Once expelled, the student is generally not allowed to return to the institution and may face difficulty enrolling in other schools without addressing the issue.
