2. To ensure your Marine is prepared for this next chapter in their careers, it is highly recommended they be assigned a Company Grade Officer within your command as a mentor. This Marine Officer should assist with a physical training regiment that would prepare the Marine for the rigorous demands of OCS. Additionally, the Marine Officer should mentor the Officer Candidate to ensure they are aware of and prepared for the expectations at OCS, The Basic School (TBS), and life as a Company Grade Officer. Assistance and additional information can be found at website www.trngcmd.marines.mil. Select Units, then Northeast, then OCS or TBS.
3. Point of contact (POC) information. Marines are directed to send their current POC information electronically to both the MCRC POC listed in paragraph 13 and OCS POC listed in paragraph 14, within one week from release of this MARADMIN. Email subject line must read “(Respective Program) Select POC information”. Marines are directed to use the E-O select POC information sample on the MCRC website at www.mcrc.marines.mil. Select Marine Officer, then Officer Naval/Enlisted Applicants, then E-O general information. Marines must submit the Microsoft Word version of POC format without signature. Any changes to POC sheet from original submission, to include personnel changes, must be forwarded. Marines are directed to provide POC information for each level of their endorsing chain of command as directed on the POC sheet. Marines are also directed to notify their primary military occupational specialty monitor of their selection.
4. Non-selects. Marines who were not selected refer to ref (A) chapter one. For more information and career counseling, call DSN 278-9241 or commercial (703) 784-9241 or 1-(800)-833-2320 or visit their website at www.manpower.usmc.mil. Select top requests then Enlisted Career Counselors.
5. Commanders refer to ref (A) chapter one for information pertaining to status change or removal recommendations of Marines. Marines who decline selection must forward a formal request, via their endorsing chain of command through the General Officer (GO) level, to CG, MCRC. Commands and Marines are directed to send initial courtesy copy of above requests electronically to MCRC POC until all endorsements are received.
6. Medical. Submission of medical documents alone to MCRC does not qualify a Marine to ship to OCS. Marines must be determined medically qualified by BUMED per ref (G) prior to reporting to OCS. MCRC is responsible for determining Marines medically qualified for OCS via BUMED. Commands and Marines are not permitted to contact BUMED directly. Marines are not guaranteed to attend the OCS class with which the board aligns. OCS class dates are tentative and are subject to change. Refer to ref (A) Commanders Intent pertaining to OCS opportunities. MCRC POC will notify Marines of their medical qualification status for OCC 225 once available by BUMED.

e. If question 29 on the checklist is marked "no", Officer inCharge must provide supporting documentation as directed per ref (A), chapter one.
8. Funding. MECEP and ECP Marines who are found medically qualified will receive a funding letter from the MCRC POC, to provide to their parent command to issue Temporary Additional Duty orders to attend OCS. All selects are directed to forward electronically, a complete flight itinerary if flying, respond "privately owned vehicle" (POV) or "drop off to OCS by (relationship to candidate)", and provide a copy of approved orders with itemized printout of daily costs to MCRC POC. MCP-R Marines determined medically qualified will be notified by MCRC POC and should then contact Reserve Affairs (RIT) at commercial (703) 784-9771 or email smb-RIT(at symbol)usmc.mil for orders writing instructions. All information must be received prior to reporting to OCS.
