I believe that criminal records are sealed for under age offenders.

No. When I was 14 I got stopped by the police riding my motorcycle without a license. I got arrested, thrown in jail, probably booked, etc. Never came up again during my college app. Your juvenile record is sealed I think unless it's a reaaaaaaaaally serious crime where you may have been tried as an adult.

Most likely not; they don't do a complete background check during admissions to college, only whether or not you have decent grades, participate in extracurricular activities, seem to have a general path you want to take through school and a career goal in mind, and whether or not you can afford college on your own or will require financial aid. I wouldn't worry about a few indiscretions in your youth; I'd wait until you interview for a job to worry about that.

As long as you weren't charged or convicted.
If you are going into a field with children or something or that sort, you should talk to a councelor before you start classes. You don't want to let that get in your way.

Your record before the age of eighteen is sealed, unless you were guilty of a felony and you were tried as an adult. I don't think this was your problem, so no it will not show up.

In most (if not all) places, juvenile arrest and conviction records are sealed.

It depends. Are you alteast 18 now? Because your record should clear once you turn 18.
