If you're in college, your smarter then your question. Do not give up. Be good, do good, and you will be rewarded. You can inspire someone else with challenges like yours. Study, have fun, excel. Maybe try to see a counselor and work through your guilt.

That's no reason to leave college.
You might have a hard time getting into Med School but it's not impossible.
Once you have obtained a bachelors degree, you might be wise to apply for a judicial discharge or pardon. If you have lived an exemplary life since your conviction then it's quite possible.
Hang in there, you're on the right road.

stay in school and get your degree!! you wont have any problem becoming a vet and even if you were to, knowledge is power. It will only help you get a better paying job down the road. Employers like to see that you were determined enough to go to school and finish what you started.

Stay in College and try to get as good of grades as you can....this should not preclude you from getting into vet school.
You are guaranteed to not get a good job/career if you quit college, also never try to hid this conviction if asked. That is much worse than disclosing it.

Giving up on college will cripple you, and make you more likely to resort to criminal acivity for survival.
