Go see West Point. Cadets, if they manage to graduate, are given college degrees and commissions.
The Service Academies usually specialize in engineering, though, but there are some business administration majors and other such things. You can also apply as an officer to pursue graduate studies and pursue your Master's degree in Criminal Justice while you are serving.

If you can get in a military academy, whoa...congrats. You do know you need a congressional appointment right?
Anyway, each academy has a website. Why don't you start out by going to the Naval Academy site and check out their majors? Also, remember you can have another major besides criminal justice and still have a law enforcement career.

Yes, they do have degree programs. You should be able to find it online. As a previous poster mentioned, they do center on engineering a lot, but they do have other programs. I know political science is available also. If you request it from the academy, they will send you the information and a catalog of the courses just like any college.

if its in your family's blood, just ask them and they will tell you to do enlisted first. The Marine Corps strongly prefers officers who were prior enlisted. You will get almost no respect as an officer without prior enlistment. Even after you made it past Lt to Capt., you will get very little respect. Go in enlisted as an MP, then when you are done go to college and do reserves. After you get your degree, get commissioned as an officer. I say go enlisted before you attempt to be an officer, or you will get no respect from your superiors, or by those you command.

Please go straight into the Marines. President Bush needs you NOW, not later as an officer. The sacrifice of your life for His Legacy would be a small price for you to pay. President Bush thanks you in advance.
