No, you will not be required to go back to BCT if you are accepted to OCS. You will go directly to OCS.

There are exceptions where a break in service might warrant that though, but waivers do exist. 1LT Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 11 Aug 2021 12:02:48 -0400 2021-08-11T12:02:48-04:00 2021-08-10T14:35:33-04:00
