Adam B. Wheeler, the former Harvard student who pled not guilty last month for fabricating his academic history, applied to Stanford University after his dismissal from Harvard and was accepted at the California school for the 2010-2011 academic year.
Lisa Lapin, assistant vice president for university communications at Stanford, confirmed that Wheeler had been accepted to Stanford as an undergraduate for this fall, but said that he will not be enrolling. Wheeler would have been an incoming junior had the school not rescinded his admission.
"Whenever the university becomes aware of a possible misrepresentation of facts in an application for admission, Stanford will investigate," Lapin wrote in an e-mailed statement to The Crimson. "If at any point the university concludes that an applicant has misrepresented their credentials, we will revoke an offer of admission...
Wheeler's admission to Stanford is detailed in new court documents that were filed Wednesday, when Wheeler's attorney, Steven A. Sussman, appeared at the Middlesex Superior Court in Woburn for a pretrial conference.
The documents also indicate that Wheeler applied to Williams College's Seaport Maritime Studies Program in Mystic, Conn. Prosecutors said that the court documents indicate Wheeler's acceptance into the Williams program, according to The Boston Globe.
