Pretty much the same as required to make E-5. Also make sure you fit the new tattoo policy in 670-1 or they might boot you from the Army Recruiter Course. The EASIEST way to get selected, however, is NOT by going through the whole packet process. Do like I did and call your branch and ask to be "DA Selected". Then you don't have to bother with the whole packet and selection process.

Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS
In the USMC, you must be on your second enlistment, must be at least E4 (we get 100 points Recruiter bonus, which almost guarantees E5), have 3 years remaining upon completion of school.
I got tagged for Recruiting at 5~ years TIS, and would have shipped to school at just under 6, had I been willing to extend or reenlist to accept orders.
It appears you must have at least 4 years TIS for Army (h), which implies "first enlistment" complete.
