Getting the achievement.
Play up until the first time you are able to pick your classes, and pick sleep for all of them. You should get a knock on the door from Grabiner. He gives you 10 demerits, a detention, and of course, the "Truant" achievement. Simple.

Bonus: How to get the achievement for getting expelled.
It's recently come to my attention that what I originally wrote for this part wouldn't work. Thanks Kazekind for letting me know. His solution should work though:

I wasn't able to get the expulsion achievement that way. I had to earn -50 demerits (it does say expelled by earning demerits in the achievement after all). It's not too hard though. After the first week of sleeping, attend at least one magic class. Then, one can simply study until you get a visit and can choose not to get a detention for -10, and at the test, use green magic for another -10 and then study until you allow a prank to be played, and then when the teacher shows up, if you choose "run away", that's the last -10 for expulsion.

Or alternatively, after sleeping the first week, you could just give up in every dungeon until you have -50 demerits.

I edited the guide to put that in, thanks. No idea how that slipped my mind.

"After the first week of sleeping, one can simply study until you get a visit"

Just remember with the "only study" option, you must attend at least one class or you will be expelled before the first exam and will not get the achieve.

Got it. Changed it to green magic and removed the random part. Thanks for letting me know.

Wow that was a quick response.
I found out that I was wrong about the random aspect, and it's better (for demerits) to choose green magic (even better if one has under 25 smarts and under 5 [but at least 1 or the option won't show up] green magic skill). In the exam steam guide, the author posted this link: http://spikycaterpillar.com/magical_diary/guide.htm

Thanks for letting me know by the way! I made sure to credit you in the edit.

Huh, I done goofed then. I assumed that would work. I unlocked it from getting -50 demerits too.

I'll change that part to reflect that.

After the first week of sleeping, one can simply study until you get a visit and can choose not to get a detention for -10, and at the test, use white (or green) magic for another -10 (or maybe it's a random -5 or -10, not sure) and then study until you allow a prank to be played, and then when the teacher shows up, if you choose "run away", that's the last -10 for expulsion.

No problem, I had to do quite a bit of searching for some of the achievements. I figure if I can save someone the trouble, that would be nice.
