So that&#39;s every 6 months. So if you can get all of your packet together, which includes your letters of recommendation anything else that&#39;s needed for you to put together. It&#39;s been awhile since I put mine together, over 9 years. And then if you can make it in time for the upcoming board, you&#39;re complete. Make sure that you check the MILPER messages for the latest application information for in-service OCS. Now I&#39;m specifically talking about federal OCS. Everything that you would possibly need is in that message, and those come out approximately every 6 months in order to prepare for the board.

Are you talking the Federal Program? Thats just a matter of throwing a packet together, getting chain of command approval and making the attrs reservation. Granted you will need a current chapter 2 physical and of course, meet all the requirements. Barring any hiccups on the moral/medical end, I usually can have a packet together and a reservation made in a few days. The Federal course is 90 days long. 1LT(P) Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 05 Aug 2020 12:08:24 -0400 2020-08-05T12:08:24-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/typically-how-long-does-the-ocs-process-take?n=6181151&urlhash=6181151 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If going Federal OCS: From packet submission to school attendance? Will take close to a year. My board was Dec 2014, board results came out in February 2015, received my ATRRS school date to attend September 2015.
