Honesty, I don&#39;t know what 31 credits would help but if he had an Associates of Arts degree, I&#39;m sure it wouldn&#39;t hurt but I&#39;m not sure about the number of units you have. The only other way is if you had somebody else enlist with you I think they can grant you E2 status.<br /><br />With the army so short-handed of people, check with your recruiter and see how flexible they are.<br /> Response by LTC Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 29 at 2023 11:13 PM 2023-04-29T23:13:27-04:00 2023-04-29T23:13:27-04:00 SGM Mikel Dawson 8256450 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>When I enlisted in 1983, the had a program called &quot;Civilian Acquired Skills&quot; which allowed one to enter as an E3, which I did.

Any info from this site will be dated and possibly outdated. Contracts come and go and so do enlistment incentives. In the past Army, Air Force, Navy and Coast Guard have offered E3 with 20 plus college credits or a certificate from JROTC. USMC will give E2 for the same things. But the recruiter is the only resource you need to go off of as they ill have recent information.

I had a Bachelor&#39;s when I enlisted so I came in as a E4. If there&#39;s a certain number of college credits they should get E2 or E3. But a recruiter is going to have the most current info.
