What are some college classes I could take to be a junior officer in the USMC infantry?

Before becoming a junior officer (2nd Lieutenant) in the Marines, you must apply for Officer Candidate School or Platoon Leaders Class. Upon graduation, you are appointed a 2nd Lieutenant. NROTC can ceratinly help in your application and your work at either of these schools. But first, you must finish college. The Marines are not that choosy as to what your major was in school. But the better your school record, the better your chances. Remember, we're in a bad economy and people are looking for work all over the place. Plenty of College Grads can't find a job. As a result, many people turn to the military for work. And the military now has an abundance of applicants. So what does the military do? They raise their standards. They want the best of the best. So, the more you have on your resume and the better it looks, the more of an edge you'll have when applying. Good Luck to You.

ps. There is nothing more honorable than being a Marine.

Wow! A nineteen year old female with a degree in English that wants to be in the USMC. That statement is at best confusing. Now, I'm sure that there are plenty of competent Marine Corps Officers out there with degrees in English, but I just wonder if you know what you are getting yourself into. If you go enlisted you will most likely be far better educated than your 19 year old peers, and the vast majority will say "Why are you enlisted if you have a degree?" And so will you! You will look at the officers and think "I have the same education as you!" If you go officer you will be expected to lead troops. Serious stuff. Are you prepared for that? You are obviously very bright, why don't you get your Masters in a field that is available in the military and decide when you finish? You are in a very unique position for a 19 year old, I can't imagine that you will be happy as an enlisted member, and I can't imagine that you have the maturity to be an officer in the Marines. I'm sorry if that's harsh, but I think you need to step back and take some time and think about this a little more.

Marines are NROTC, you can choose the Marine option. As for a degree, it doens't really matter. I would recommend a political science class or a history class.

Your college major doesn't matter.

But you do need a 4 year BS Degree.

Marine's would take NROTC Marine Option.

in order to be an officer, you must have a 4 year degree. so all of them.

you would look for NROTC and select Marine Option. they will tell you what degree options you have.
