That all depends on what that felony is for. But if you accomplished 2 bachelors and a masters since then I’m assuming the felony isn’t as serious as other felonies. In personal opinion you should seek other opportunities that you better qualified for with your masters. They have a program called ELDP that will be posting soon. I would set look in to that also
but to answer your question just apply the worst they can say is no
