Is it possible to change your BOLC/Branch? Just received my branch and feel I can contribute more in another area. If it is possible to switch, how would I go about trying to switch?

It Depends. If you're active component it's more difficult (or I would have been an Engineer officer). RC it's easier. What branch do you want?
If you are OCS, probably not going to happen. If you find you really don't like your current branch, your next opportunity will be changing when you are ready for the Captains Career Course. Then you can change branches and just attend the CCC for your new Branch.
Sympathetic to you Sir as I cannot imagine serving in a branch I had little interest in. Fortunately there is more to being an Army officer than just launching Yugos downrange and it sounds like you have the right head on your shoulders.

Priority for preference lists start with the academy, then to ROTC, then OCS gets the branches still unfilled.
