I've seen the sticky about Ged/diploma/college credit questions etc. but it doesn't really answer my question.
Im trying to enlist but I only have a high school diploma from Mexico. How would that work in my case? do Marines accept it? or would I still need to enroll and get 15 college credits?
I've been working really hard to get in shape plus Im 26 years old and this is something I've always wanted to do but couldn't until recently.
Not yet. I guess I'm going to have to wait until tuesday when they're open
If you are trying to enlist you are not a poolee....you need to have been to MEPS and have a tentative shipdate.Quote:

Good luck in your endeavors.
Im not really sure why its showing Poolee/Dep under my username. I was wondering about that. Maybe a mod can change that for me.Quote:

Your recruiter will have to have your high school diploma evaluated by a local community college. Some transfer directly, some do not. I have dealt with a few from various countries, unfortunately none from Mexico. Good luck.Quote:
