I've always wanted to do demolitions. But its under Combat Engineering. Do I need a diploma/major in engineering to join EOD/ Combat Engineers?

Absolutely not. One of my USMC MOS was 1371, Combat Engineer. The 2nd Combat Engineer Battalion School at Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, N. Carolina will teach you what is required for this military occupational specialty as an enlisted man. However it would be beneficial to get your degree and go to Officers Candidate School, upon successful completion you would be a Commissioned Officer.
Speak with a USMC Officer Selection Recruiter for exact requirements.

No you dont, but you do need a certain score on your asvab and a high school diploma or 15 college credits.

not at all. combat engineer is a standered MOS. high school only. its not really engineering, mostly its mine removal and ditch diging, emplacing obstacles that kind of thing. if you want to build things look more at the CBs, seabees, navy construction battalions.

No you don't.
You need either a High School Diploma or GED

I think it would help. The more you know about what you are demo=ing then the better you will be at it to do it safely.

Nope. That's why the military trains you.
