Ive been thinking about joining the military to get money for school since my freshman year nearly bankrupted me. So far Ive talked to the Marines and the Air Force. Everyone says the Air Force is the best by far but Im not sure how accurate that it since I think that mostly comes from AF being the least likely to deport you. The first Marine recruiter I talked to really impressed me and said that I could get my school and housing paid for now and get 80,000 to use for school after my service is done to get a Master's I assume. He also said that when I see the education officer during boot camp and say that I want to go to school that they cant take me away from school which I interpreted as I cant be deported. Anyone know if this is accurate? But the 2nd recruiter that I saw made me want to get as far away from Marines as possible as his motive was to use scare tactics to get me to join and that makes me nervous. Anyway, as anyone knows this is a big decision and I am just curious if anyone with military insight or experience can shed some light on my problem? Basically Im looking for the branch that will pay for a good bit of my expenses but I want to finish college now, not get deported and finish it later. Thank you.
