Can I continue my education through the USMC?

How? Through what programs? Here are my two options. What would be the best?

1. Finish my AS degree, take out a student loan of 20K+ and attend a Cal State to get a BS....then apply for officership in the USMC

or

2. Finish my AS degree, join the USMC and continue to my undergraduate studies for a specific MOS.

Providing that I don't get accepted by the USAF. Oh, by the way...my ASVAB score is 70. Would the USMC accept that for any computer related MOS? :l
It's b/c I want to become a Marine while I'm still young. If I went with choice 1, how much of my debt would the USMC pay off?
 
it will be tough and take a while but its possible, you should have more time and help to devote to school in the air force or possibly navy although benefits are universal among the branches
 
Being an Old Devil Dog myself I'm kinda particle.And yes, you can continue your education.It will even help in your promotions.Both options are great and you'd be hard pressed on either,OCS (Officer Canidate School) for me would be the way to go.Either way your going to boot camp.Marines have a different way of doing things than the rest of the services,so good luck with any choice you make.I commend you on any choice you decide on.
