More details to this question:
A friend that lives in the UK has applied for a student visa to come to ohio & further his teaching certification. He was cited for possesion of a small amount of marajuana. Was not arrested & never served any time. The incident took place 12 years ago & has no other charges on record. Will this effect them from being approved for their visa?

A single instance of simple possession of less than 30 grams of marijuana is typically not a problem. But it must be disclosed and completely documented on the visa application (Form DS-160).
