Of course! Being a victim of a crime would NEVER disqualify you from a career in law enforcement............

Being raped alone is not grounds for rejection. However, if the rape caused severe mental damage to the point that you would fail a psychological evaluation, then yes it can keep you from being a cop.

That you were the victim of a terrible crime will not preclude you from a career in LE.

Go for it. . .

Of course you can, but before you try ask yourself if you have too much emotional baggage. To become a police officer you have to pass a phycological evaluation. If you have delt with what you went through in a healthy way and are a stable person then there should be no reason why you couldn't become a police officer.

Yes, I would say. Just be very careful when you go through your job phases which consist of several steps. One of the steps is Psy. Interview. You don’t want to bring up your past. As matter of fact, it is better not to disclose what happened to you in your initial application. Unless, you are sure that when the PD do you investigation, they would find out.

The more you disclosed the more chance they will reject you,
Let say, you told them that you were abused when you were a child. They would prob. think that you have a feelings problem and couldn't handle police work because in this line of work, you must have high degree of self control.

no

No. You cannot be a female police office unless your hymen is still fully intact and you plan on leaving it that way for the rest of your life.

Yes. I don't see why not, you didn't commit a crime.

of course as long as you can pass the mental evaluation

Yeah, that would have nothing to do with stopping you from becoming an officer.

sleep easy....just for your information...I am a police officer, i have been through the process, being the victim of rape as a teen will in no way shape or fashion effect you or your chances to be a LEO.
