    Initial contract E-1, update to E-2 w/ 23 college credits...No new contract given???

    Hello Marines! Today I was summoned by a new SSGT taking charge at my local recruiter station in Michigan to talk about updating my inital reservist contract as E-1 to E-2 due to me turning in 23 college credits and shipping early. SSGT told me I was promoted to E-2, but will not get a contract like I did at MEPS when I first signed. All I was given was a print off in the online folder they have on me from MEPS saying "College credits warrant promotion to the grade of E-2 per the Enlisted Processing Manual pg. 4-39 section 6." Was told that this promotion is in my shippinh packet and they will promote me to E-2 if I graduate Bootcamp. Is this normal? Any advice or answers are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Do the best you can at PI and come back and resurrect this same thread and let us know you finished boot camp. Good luck.
