can you enlist in the marines with student loans?
i'm currently a freshman in a cc and will transfer into ucla. while i'm in cc, i'm pretty much paying this out of my own pocket unless I get financial aid. I was wondering if having student loans and/or bad credit (though I don't have any) will restrict me from enlisting in the marines? and the reason why I don't go into reserves and waiting till after college is because I don't want the chance to get deployed while i'm still in school. plus the whole one weekend a month can distract me from studying time, since I know a couple of marine reservist who tell me that it can stretch up to 2-5 days. so yeah, will this set me back from enlistment?

I've read online that it's really hard and that it actually requires one to think outside of the box and out of their comfort zone. Any first hand students that took this course that would want to give me a little insight of what I'm in for? Intro to phil- 110.

I've heard it can be done, but it's really sleep depriving and really stressfull to do so. I'm planning to join the marines soon. I talked to a former marine and said that he went to ucla while in active duty. I've heard only desk jobs like admin allows time flexibility, if that's the case, is that the only job that allows time flexibility?

8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoIs there hazing in the marine corp?
i've been interested in joining the marines for a few years now, the only thing i'm scared of bootcamp is pretty much the gas chamber. with that said, there's been many assumptions that there's hazing even after bootcamp. is that true? is hazing for all marines or just those who are boots in infantry?
3 AnswersMilitary9 years agoDo all marines have to go to war?

And does your asvab scores determine on your variety of which mos job you can take? sorry, i haven't talked to a recruiter yet but i will once my summer starts.
4 AnswersMilitary9 years agoWhich is better? Army or USMC?
I plan to enlist in one of the two after highschool, but i do not know which one to go for. I have the upmost respect for the two branches just as much as the navy and air force, but the fact that i can actually make a difference while i'm serving the two makes me want to join even more. So which is better to join? Benefits wise and the likely hood of what it'll be like in the army or usmc. You can save the whole "it's great, just like family" speech, and as well as "it's dangerous, just like jarhead or any other war movie", because it's just a movie.
