GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. The purpose of this MARADMIN is to announce the
updated application submission process for the CY25-2 Enlisted to
Officer (E-O) programs: Marine Corps Enlisted Commissioning
Education Program (MECEP), Enlisted Commissioning Program (ECP),
Enlisted to Judge Advocate Program (E-JA), Reserve Enlisted
Commissioning Program (RECP), and Meritorious Commissioning
Program-Reserve (MCP-R).
2. Boards and Selection. Per references (a) and (b), the E-O
selection boards will convene:
Board Application Deadline Board Convenes
CY25-1 15 January 2025 15 April 2025
CY25-2 14 June 2025 14 October 2025
Selection board results will be published by a separate MARADMIN.
Marines will be scheduled to the first available Officer
Candidates Class (OCC). Deferment requests for scheduled OCC class
will only be entertained for medical or personal hardships and
approved on a case-by-case basis. Failure to attend scheduled
class or disapproved deferments will result in disenrollment
from the program. OCC report and graduation dates will be on the
MCRC website.
3. Application and medical submissions. Complete applications must
be submitted by the established deadline to be considered by the
board. Requests to submit incomplete applications after the
deadline will be disapproved. Marines must meet program and medical
requirements in accordance with references (a), (b), and (f) at the
time of application submission. Marines are required to use the E-O
application on the MCRC website as it has changed from previous
versions
3.a. Visit the MCRC website at www.mcrc.marines.mil. Select
'Marine Officer', then 'Naval and Enlisted Programs'. Click
the Enlisted to Officer Commissioning tab.
3.b. Download the current Enlisted to Officer application.
The current version is dated 20250227. Marines must also use the
medical submission instructions on the website to ensure all medical
requirements and timeframes are met.
3.c. Application must be in the same order as checklist to include
required added documents. DO NOT include master brief sheets in
application or documents not listed on checklist. Signed checklist
must also be included with the application as the first page.
Application and medical must be submitted as two separate PDF files.
Both should be labeled as follows:
EDIPI_Last Name Program App (1234567890_Marine MECEP App)
EDIPI_Last Name Program Med (0987654321_Officer ECP Med)
3.d. The primary way for Marines to submit both their applications
and medical is via the url:
https:(slash slash)forms.osi.apps.mil/r/3bFx6VcBx4.
The website can also be found by visiting: https:
(slash slash)www.mcrc.marines.mil/Marine-
Officer/Officer-Naval-Enlisted-Applicants/ and select the “Enlisted
to Officer Commissioning” tab. Once on that webpage, scroll down to
“Application Submission” to access the submission portal. Common
Access Card (CAC) is required to access the application submission
portal.
3.e. If the website is inaccessible, the secondary way for Marines
to submit both their applications and medical is in DOD SAFE at
www.safe.apps.mil to the OMB e_oboard@marines.usmc.mil. Both should
be sent in one DOD Safe drop off as this system allows larger and
multiple files to be sent at one time. Common Access Card (CAC) is
required. DO NOT password protect the PDF files prior to uploading.
Use the 'drop off option' and follow the directions to upload and
submit. At a minimum, check both the "encrypt every file" and
"send me an email when each recipient picks up the file" boxes on
the right side. This allows Personally Identifiable Information
(PII) to be sent and informs the sender when the application is
picked up by the recipient. Encryption will require you to create a
passphrase. Marines are directed to provide the passphrase
separately to the OMB email and label the subject line
"DOD Safe passphrase". DO NOT list any other information (EDIPI,
PII, name) or punctuation within the passphrase email other than
the passphrase as it initiates error emails stating PII has been
detected.
3.f. In the event DOD SAFE will not accommodate your submission the
tertiary option submit an application is by sending the application
and medical files via unencrypted email to
e_oboard@marines.usmc.mil. Attachments must not exceed a combined
file size of 10MB to be accepted by the MCRC email server; this must
be used as a very last option. The attachments must be password
protected, and password must be included in the email. Password
must be the same for both files.
3.g. DO NOT send submissions more than once. MCRC will provide
confirmation of package receipt within 10 working days of the
application deadline.
4. This MARADMIN is applicable to the Marine Corps Total Force.
5. The POCs for this MARADMIN are Capt Monique Devitt and Ms.
Troi Spencer. Please refer to POC information at the beginning of
this MARADMIN. For email correspondence, email organizational
mailbox e_oboard@marines.usmc.mil.
6. Release authorized by Major General William J. Bowers,
Commanding General, Marine Corps Recruiting Command.//
