    Honestly the best and clearest explanation of the reserves and how it works with college. And was impressed with the gym edit at the beginning! hard to believe you only have about 300 subscribers.

    Im in my first semester of college rn, I wanted to be a marine since a kid but senior year of high school I realize college was the best path for my future, but now I have that feeling of regret because being a marine has been my dream for years.

      Do it man. I am 5 years out and still regret it. The regret never goes away and it only get’s stronger and worse.
      You start feeling old and too late for that opportunity. Blaming others and sometimes yourself for never going. So my advice. DO IT

      As a few others said, definitely go for it if your heart tells you to do so. If you choose the active duty route and do your 4 years, you could go back to college but this time have the GI Bill behind your back

    Although I was never a big fan of being a reservist not because I got beef against them, I always wanted to join active duty but now thinking about it more.. I will probably enlist next year when my 2nd year of college is done, take the year off, earn the title and move on what I gotta do. Thank you so much for this video it opened more to me.

  • @joshuaandino
    @joshuaandino 5 місяців тому

    I'm 6 years late but I want to say for anyone who wants to join the marines while in college. I would suggest the national guard instead. The reason for that is in the marine reserves you're pretty limited on where you can go to college. Like you have to go to school near a marine base (there's not much bases in the US). So let's say you want to go to the University of Wyoming, you can't really in the marine reserves because you need to stay close to the base for weekend drills and Wyoming has none of that whereas the national guard you can be anywhere in the country you want.

    Sheldon, I love your channel. I like to share my experience of me being a reservist. I started in the US Army Reserve in 1997 and then went into the California Air National Guard (USAF) in 2005. My MOS is military police and Helicopter crew chief. I have deployed to Iraq in 2003 and Afghanistan in 2014. Other then my deployments and basic training, I have never served on Active duty. I guess the reasons are some of the same you have in your earlier video. Also I was single at the time and looking for a civilian career so I wanted to remain close to home. I have a four college degree now so yes it was challenge to balance my Reserve responsibilities and going to school. It was the same in finding a job and working. I wanted to get into Law enforcement so there was a training academy I have to attend which I could not leave just to attend a two week training event. Well, that is part of the reason I did not reenlist with the Army Reserve because I felt they did not care if I have a training academy that I cannot take time off. Well, all I can say I am into my 20 year career and am close to retiring, I had no regrets in joining the military.

I’m trying to get the ball rolling on enrolling in college. An intelligence officer (0202) would be a dream come true. Maybe even attempting to make it into the naval academy in Austin would be awsome . Not an easy feat i know but I feel like I’m more closer to that possibility now than I’ll ever be 💪🏼. This video brings a lot of motivation to the table and I appreciate it . Semper Fi devil 💪🏼

    Question being a reserve how much do you get pay. I thought reserve get pay around $400 or $500. But I was watching a video the other day forgot the youtuber name and he mention something payment being under $300 and that's only after 10 deployment something. He mention even if they go to train that 1 or 2 week that don't count their fore due to that reason payments are bad

    • @jordanmeadows4115

    Like fighting a war on two fronts. Bad idea. I've heard many people proclaim they worked full-time and went to school full-time. What they neglect to say is that they had superior and mentors on both ends that cooperated with them and supported their endeavors. Not everybody has that type of arrangement. Most bosses just want what they want and don't care about what else is going on in your life.
    There's also the type of job you have and the degree you're seeking. Some degrees you can literally do online. Others require your constant presence and undivided attention in groups or in labs and take a lot more of your time than just school hours. If it were easy everybody would be doing it. Choose wisely.

    A college football coach wants me to play football however I'm going to join the marines on January after my first season so would athletics and the reserves conflict a lot with each other and would it be a good choice to do both also do you know a lot of athletes that are reservists

      Frank Hernandez there aren't many reservists college athletes that I know of, but I heard it's possible. You would need to work with your unit to make up the drill dates when you have games and stuff for college athletics. It's not common, but it's possible.

    I have a scholarship to run track at my University but the problem is that it’s only a partial scholarship and money is tight for me. The question is can I serve my country in the Marine Corps Reserve 92 day reservist program while getting my college paid for and do you think the program would balance out with college athletics?

    My father says that if I want to do cyber related fields in the Marines I still have to go through infantry even during the reserves.
    Is this true?
    I figured I can get to a cyber field immediately within the Marines as a reservist without being in infantry.
