    Since I don’t need a waiver for the trespassing violation what does that mean for my process? Can I be rejected for that? Or do I have to just check it off and go on about my day?

    James,

    You list it in your application – it requires no waiver, which means that if you are otherwise fully qualified, you can join. It would not impede your process at all.
