Not so... as long as you admit to it and you were really a stupid idiot hanging out with the wrong crowd in the wrong neighborhood at the time. Some sins are understandable...when you are young. Just never lie about it..is is reason for dismissal if uncovered. So be up front...Finish you education at all cost...it is the way out of explaining how you overcame your being young and stupid once upon a time.

its very easy to think that in your situation.do not give up,a felony is one thing,but college after a felony shows that you truly want to better yourself and are interested in a fresh start.employers like to see that.keep at it and don't get discouraged,i hope you have distanced yourself from whatever it is that provoked you to commit robbery,i don't know what state you are in or if you have access to counseling,but take it if you can it will help you deal with that type of anxiety.if you are religious,mabey talking to the church might help you feel better about the situation.don't ever give up,everything always works out,some things take more time than others.im speaking from experience.you are 22,still plenty of time,i wish you the best and i hope you succeed!

No don't give it up. People can forgive and forget mistakes we make as teenagers.
