Officer Dubon, thanks for the great video and tips on the Board process. I’m in the middle of putting together my packet with my OSO for the Winter Board.
Kind off. Any type of STEM degree is better but if you dont have one, make sure the rest of your application is strong (PFT, GPA, letters of recommendations, OSO recommendation)
Super helpful. Just graduated college, albeit with not a great gpa in computer science. Currently working on finishing my pilot license and getting as close to max pft score as possible. I live in Mississippi but your videos have given me hope, so just may reach out to you soon to fulfill my dream of serving my country as a pilot, or a combat role of some kind.
my OSO Captain would not even consider doing ANY paperwork if he didn't believe you would make it! I was one of the few who thought would... i met this guy at MEPS, and he said my Captain denied him. i did not know what to say.... GOOD LUCK FUTURE MARINES! Oorah!
Is there any difference in applying for prior enlisted Marines? I got out in 2015 as an E4 and am in my Junior year of college. Just curious as to if there is different rules for us. Thanks
First and foremost, thanl you for posting these informative videos. I was wondering, of you have prior service, would it be too much to put those things on there? I understand that it helped mold me to who i am today, but would they rather see something fresh, because maybe "the past is yesterday".
Right now, they are both around the 55-60 percent selection rate. Some years air will be higher or lower than ground but this year, they are about the same. Reserves right now has a high selection rate though.
What if you haven’t done much in college, but you know from past combat leaders, like dick winters and Ulysses S. Grant, what it means and takes to be a leader and a good combat leader?
These are great pointers. Thank you for taking the time to put out this information. Also, thank you for your service.

@M Muss No real reason other than a STEM degree is more difficult than most others. More difficult makes you more competitive

Lol we have the same OSO
How did it turn out did you get accepted?
I’m 19 and I’m considering my pathways for the OSO in Sacramento. Thank you.
The OSO there is phenomenal. You are in great hands.
Best of luck!

Same criteria applies as any other candidate. You'll need your DD 214 but besides that being a Marine will make you more competitive

Working on a prior service video to come out soon.

Inquire about both. Talk to an OSO and talk to the Marine Officer Instructor at the school with the NROTC program.
What is an incredibly low GPA
2.3 or lower
Warriors Path what if you are exceptionally talented in everything else? And your extracurriculars are through the roof?
Are ground contracts highly competitive or is that air contracts?
Right now, they are both around the 55-60 percent selection rate. Some years air will be higher or lower than ground but this year, they are about the same. Reserves right now has a high selection rate though.
