Impact of Minor in Posession on Job Offer

I recently received a job offer from a consulting firm contingent on a background check. I was charged with a MIP(Minor in Possession of Alcohol) during my Freshman year and I am a little concerned about how this might affect my job offer. I managed to get the charge dropped and avoided getting convicted for a misdemeanor by doing social work, paying a fine, etc. However, a record of this dropped charge still exists and I expect it to appear in my background check. Will this prevent me from getting the job? What do consulting firms think of an MIP charge?
