| You just need to be sure that you convey the fact you've changed and grown etc. There'll be absolutely no chance of acceptance, anywhere, if there's even the slightest inkling something like it could happen again. You'll also have to show that you're a different person, as well. It's not just the felony that's uninviting, it's the mentality and attitudes that come with the person who committed it (sorry if that sounded harsh, it's not meant to, but you know what I'm getting at). If you can somehow prove, in 500 words, that you don't have the same values and outlooks as you did before then you should be okay.
The other thing is, does your record get sent to the universities? Because if it does, you could see it as a good opportunity to explain it, but I don't know if that should go in a supplemental essay or something. |
