Best Answer

Convicted felons are free to pursue any educational path they'd like, however many businesses are leery when it comes to having employees bonded to work with large sums of money. While there are no jobs that are officially illegal for felons to pursue, many felons have probationary riders prohibiting them from some social interactions or computer use that may inhibit their job seeking.

A lot will depend upon what your interests are and unfortunately what you were convicted for. Certain career paths may be closed to you, especially if they require you be bonded.

A major in Criminal Law might be a good idea (and save you some money later) with a minor degree in Political Science based on historical evidence.

Anything they like. While it must be clear that, realistically, some career fields may be closed to them due to their criminal history status, (in the US) there is no limitation on the level of education one may attain.
