So I made a stupid mistake of stealing it was my 1st time & the worst part is I got caught ; it was my 1st ever offense ; I have 2 charges ; misdemeanor larceny & possesion of marijuana. I am about to start my senior year in high school ; can this mistake keep me out of college

yes, im sorry to say.....however, maybe a school that doesnt reach your academic abilities might accept you, for example a school that isnt very good and accepts 2.1 gpa etc....or maybe you can attend community college and write your essay about how you've changed....however I could be completely wrong but I know these boys who pulled a prank on a school senior year by removing the door to a classroom and they got caught and all of them could not go to the ivy league they wanted....maybe its just with ivy leagues or top schools, but i guess it depends on where your planning on going.

A and T probably won't accept a felon.

yeah i would recommend going to community college first (much cheaper) and writing essay about how youve changed.....they would really like that and you could get into a good college

Of course it will affect you, not only does it show a high level of immaturity, but it also shows that you don't have much common sense.

The worst part is you got caught? Nope, the worst part is that you feel that that was the worst part. Hopefully you'll feel some remorse once you have to deal with the consequences.
