GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  The purpose of this MARADMIN is to publish a list of Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps (NROTC) Professor of Naval Science (PNS), Executive Officer, and Marine Officer Instructor (MOI) billet vacancies for FY19.
2.  NROTC units are an essential component in the training of prospective Naval and Marine Officers.  Duty at NROTC units offers the opportunity to mentor, lead, and shape future officers. Officers desiring to serve in this capacity must be high caliber role models who possess strong academic and physical fitness skills. MOI duty regularly includes summer augmentation to OCS or CORTRAMID.  Selections and assignments to NROTC/MOI duty will be made by a panel on or about 20 September 2018.
3.  Eligibility.  NROTC positions are 8006 (any unrestricted officer) billets and are open to all unrestricted military occupational specialties.  Officers must meet the following eligibility criteria to be considered:
3.a.  Grade Eligibility.  Different billets and universities require grades from captain to colonel.  Paragraph 5 lists available billets with the required grade and special requirements.
3.b.  Time on Station Requirements.  As listed in the reference, officers who complete their prescribed tour lengths during FY19 will be eligible.
3.c.  Time on Station Waivers.  Officers may request in writing via AA form to be screened if they have not completed their prescribed tour length by FY19.  Such requests must be endorsed by the first colonel in the chain of command.  Commands should be aware that if an officer is allowed to depart his or her tour early, the billet may be gapped until the officer would have normally departed the unit unless inventory supports an early backfill.
3.d.  Academics.  Minimum requirement is a Bachelors Degree with a 3.0 undergraduate grade point average, waiverable at some schools to 2.5 if the record is otherwise outstanding.  If a billet requires a Masters Degree, it will be listed under special requirements in paragraph 5.
3.e.  Physical Fitness.  High first class PFT recommended.
4.  Officers interested in NROTC duty who meet the above eligibility criteria must submit the documents listed below as part of their package to MMOA-3 no later than 7 September 2018 to the below address: Email Address: smbmanpowerofficerpr@usmc.mil.  If unable
to submit electronically, packages may be mailed to the below address: Mailing address: Commandant of the Marine Corps (MMOA-3) Attn: NROTC/MOI Selection Panel 3280 Russell Road Quantico, VA 22134-5103
4.a.  The package must include:
(1) Personal statement.  This is submitted in standard naval letter format from the Marine to CMC (MMOA).  This is the officers opportunity to express in writing their personal strengths, desire to serve on NROTC duty, and duty station preferences.  Applicants must include a prioritized list of all billets for which they are eligible to assist in the slating process.
(2) Command endorsement for captains (immediate chain of command: BN/SQDN or equivalent).
(3) One letter of recommendation.
4.b.  In addition to the requirements above, the following documents must be submitted to MMRP-20 no later than 4 September 2018 to the following email address: smb.manpower.mmrp-20@usmc.mil Indicate in the text of the email that the attachment (in PDF) is update material for the FY19 NROTC PANEL.  All material forwarded to MMRP-20 for inclusion in the OMPF must contain the grade, full name, and EDIPI. Mailing address: Headquarters U.S. Marine Corps (MMRP-20) 2008 Elliot Road Quantico, VA 22134-5030 Phone: 800-268-3710
4.b.1.  Current photo.  A current official photograph is required by the NROTC Selection Board.  The photograph must be dated within 12 months of the convening of the board.  Digital photographs are preferred and are to be electronically filed in the officers OMPF through MMRP.
4.b.2.  Official College Transcripts.  Official college transcripts are to be sent directly from the university or officer to MMRP-20 to be included in the officers OMPF.  If legible college transcripts are already included in the officers OMPF, a duplicate submission is not required.
4.c.  Every effort will be made to match selected officers with their preferences.  However, by volunteering for NROTC duty, officers agree to be assigned to any available NROTC billet.  All requests to decline selection after the release of the selection MARADMIN must be made via naval correspondence with command endorsement.  All requests will be considered in the context of the needs of the Marine Corps for approval or disapproval.  Requests
for declination by officers who volunteered and were selected for NROTC duty will not normally receive favorable consideration. There is no deferral of NROTC/MOI selection.
