I'm a felon can I go to college in be something with this being on me for the rest of my life?

It's not that simple. Some professions are out, such as those being around medicines and patients. But what if your felony was as an accountant? It depends a lot on what your conviction was for.
You might consider a trade school, such as CDL license or carpentry or HVAC or electrician. What are you interested in being?
