    In most states you can go to college, but you will have to pay out of pocket. No financial aid or state grants. *** edited racial rant that had no place in the answer.

    You may go to college, but depending on what the conviction is it can matter. A DUI is different from a murder. A fraud may be different than selling drugs.

    Next there can still be some financial aid, work with your college aid department.

    Some jobs, such as real estate agent, or insurance agent may be restricted in some states, I would check with the licensing departments of the state you wish to work for.
