Is it possible to go to Parris Island, SC?

I live in DENVER, CO and would go to SAN DIEGO for recruit training and was wondering if its possible to get some kind of waiver to go to Parris Island even though I live in Denver. Like if I said I wanted to follow after my grandmothers footsteps of being a marine and going to Parris Island.

Update:

IF so then how. Anything could be possible just based on what Ive heard concerning WAIVERS. IT DOESNT MATTER WHERE I GO FOR MARINE RECRUIT TRAINING. IT JUST BETTER BE EXTREMELY HARD TO MAKE IT WORTH MORE TO ACCOMPLISH.My reasoning for Parris Island is because 3RD BATTALION INDIA COMPANY PARRIS ISLAND is said to be one of the hardest companies in Marine recruit training.

    Anything is possible with a waiver. Try your best to convince your recruiter to get you orders to MCRD PI. If not, ask if you can talk to the station cheif.

    No. You go where the Marines send you. It's as simple as that.
