Im currently a United States Marine with a background in the Infantry ( 0311 ) and am now with 3rd Fleet Anti-Terrorism Security Team ( FAST ). Im looking at applying with the DEA when I get out of the USMC. What is the best degree to obtain to maximize my chances of getting picked up by the DEA?

Accounting was the last popular degree that DEA was seeking over other degrees. It might not be popular anymore when you get out.

Also, keep your choices open for other agencies. DEA is on a major hiring freeze that's set as of now to continue through 2008. ATF is similar, ICE works major drug cases, so does NCIS. I also agree that a foreign language makes you super competitive. Arabic, Farsi, and Japanese are HOT commodities and will be for several years I think. Of course, it takes that long to learn them to proficiency too.
