I am getting conflicting information about it has to be 50 or higher. A recruiter said today that right now my son can not get in with 48 but after October 1st, there will be regulation changes. Does anyone know what that will be?
 
No. He needs a 50 and 15 college credit hours.

Don't look for any major changes after October 1st. They are still getting way, way more potential recruits than there are openings. As long as the economy stays bad there will be far more people trying to enlist than they need. All the services can and will stay very picky about who they allow to enlist.

There's a reason behind it. The services have a great deal of data showing them just how likely a recruit is to finish his/her enlistment without any major disciplinary problems based on age and education. Simply put, your son is at higher risk than a high school graduate of failing to complete his enlistment.

The days when the military was seen as a place to turn a kid's life around around are over. That all ended back in the 80's.
