Whats the chances of getting into a university if...

<p>...you only have a GED, but you got a military background?</p>

<p>I've only completed up to the 11th grade.. and then dropped out in 12th to get my GED, because I had messed around too much my previous years.</p>

<p>I'm 19.. I just graduated from 17 weeks OSUT (One Station Unit Training) a month ago, as a US Army Combat Engineer.</p>

<p>Now.. since I've talked to my unit, they said they'll pay for my college if I wanted to go back.. which is what I wanna do now.</p>

<p>Would I have to go to a community college first, or what? I read online that 90-95% of universities accept GEDs.. but surely they went to a CC for two yrs, right? Otherwise, I don't see how they'd accept you with a 1.8 GPA before you dropped out.</p>
