Hi I have already enlisted in the Marine Corps and I'm very excited about my decision. I know that you need a certain amount of college credits to be promoted to PFC by the time you graduate boot camp. My recruiter told me that it was 12 or 13. I am attending college full time right now and I will be receiving 13 college credits total. My recruiter pretty much told me that I'll definitely be PFC, but we haven't done any paper work for it yet. I was talking to one of my friends that is a Marine and he said that he is pretty sure you need 15 college credits to graduate PFC. So.. I just wanted to know if anyone was sure about the exact number of credits needed. I'm definitely going to talk to my recruiter about it, but this is making me nervous and I wanted to double check. Thank you! [/b]
