Here is the Marine Corps height and weight standards:

Though having your GED is alright, the Marine Corps can only send a few people with GEDs in a year, so it slims your chances.

There has been a few people I've known that have obtained their citizenship by joining yes, it's a great way to do it too. There is hope, just have to lose a little weight and you'll be good as long as you don't have any criminal history or medical problems. Such big problems that disqualify you are tattoos that are on the wrist and such:

Some other med problems are Asthma, which disqualifies you. Talk to your local recruiter and they can provide more information.

Please fill out your profile more, the site rules demand it.

Best of luck to you,
