    Marine Corps Reserve Units Full. Advice

    Hello,

    My name is Chris. I am a Junior at Utica College located in Utica New York. I have wanted to join the Marines since high school, but promised my grandfather I would finish college. Now as I am reaching my end of college, I feel I would like to Join the Marine Reserves, while I attend graduate school.

    The closest Reserve unit to me is in Syracuse, NY, it is a LAV unit I believe. I called my local recruiter today, and he told me that the unit is full and not currently taking in Marines. I had planned on going the summer before my senior year, summer 2015.

    I am sure it is a case to case situation, but does anyone know how long typically a unit does not take in new Marines. How long could it take to open up? Maybe by the time I graduate in 2016?

    what are you going to grad school for?.....have you looked into becoming an officer at all??

    The recruiter told me to try back in the Spring to see if any openings occur.
