You are not required to have a college degree to join the BP. However, if you do, and achieve a 3.0 or better GPA you will qualify to join at a higher pay grade. If I were you, I'd finish the college degree. That's much more important for your future than just about anything else. It is, however, not required in order for you to join.

It can take a long time. An 85 is likely enough to get into the academy. If they're not on a hiring push, or are on a hiring freeze (most agencies were due to the sequester - so it backed everything up). I scored a 92 or something and it took a while for them to call me, and that was during the hiring push. It may take a while.
