Felon getting a college degree?
I am a 43 year old man with 2 felonys. My first one was in 2005 for assault on a nurse in the emergency room. I never went to prison but did 4 months in county jail, and received a 3rd degree assault conviction. My second felony actually happened in 2004 but wasn't convicted until 2007 for possession of stolen property. They are both class c felonys, and I never went to prison. I didn't even have to do any jail time for the possession charge. We are coming up on 2011 and I was wondering what my options are as far as getting a good job if I went to college. Will I be allowed to even go to college? It seems I have the worst crimes, one violent , and the other is theft. Any advice would be welcomed Thank you
