Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Florida

We live in Gainesville FL where my son wants to attend a GED program at Santa Fe CC. My son is 16 years old and has been convicted of a felony, does he have to disclose this information on the enrolment application. Adjudification was with held, however I'm not sure that means anything.

Thank you for your help, Bryan

I am not sure what the admission application says, so I will not comment on what you have to disclose on it. However, if adjudication was withheld, then there was no conviction.
