I am seriously considering in attending OCS in the future. I know it takes very long time to get to the board, get approved, and get shipped to OCS. I am quiet not sure who is the "GO TO PERSON" for preparing OCS packets. It seems like there aren't many information put out when it comes to OCS. I am not too sure if retention will handle OCS packets. Meanwhile where can I find information on OCS board/interview (Colonel level) dates? Thank you all!

Why not talk to some of the officers at your command to find some who are prior enlisted? It is always best to seek out the Mustangs in your own unit - they've been through the process and can help guide you along the way.

In the Reserves, the ARCD handles all OCS/WOCS application submissions. Each region has there own recruiter who guides you through the process and ultimately submits to HRC. I'm not sure if they work with AD but they could certainly answer any questions you have.
You can arrange your own fields board, if you know officers that are available. I arranged mine and the recruiter brought other candidates to participate.
Best source of information are the MILPER messages on HRC's website.
