Officer Candidate School (U.S. Marine Corps)



The United States Marine Corps Officer Candidate School (OCS) is a school located on Marine Corps Base Quantico, that trains, screens, and evaluates potential officers of Marines. Unlike the other United States services, the majority of Marine Corps officers must complete OCS to earn a commission; the only exception are midshipmen from the United States Naval Academy.
