It is recommended to use DoD SAFE for missing or required documents as it accepts multiple and larger files and provides pickup information provided the sender checks the box "Send me an email when each recipient picks up the files". The sender should also check their DoD SAFE outbox for file delivery and pickup information. Provide the passphrase to open your DOD Safe file in a separate email NOT DOD Safe. Failure to provide the missing documents in the allotted timeframe will result in disenrollment from the selected program and reapplication to a future board will be required.
3. MECEP selectees are not authorized to take additional classes after release of this MARADMIN except if required for admission to the school. MECEP selectees who obtain a bachelor's degree prior to attending a NROTC or affiliated school will be disenrolled and must apply to a future ECP board.
4. Non-selects. Marines who were not selected refer to reference (a) chapter one. For more information and career counseling visit www.manpower.marines.mil. Select Divisions, then Manpower Management, then Performance Branch, then Records and Performance, then scroll down and select Career Counseling, then select Contact Us. Reasons for non-selection cannot be provided by MCRC or the career counselors; however, career counselors can evaluate Marines' Official Military Personnel Files (OMPF) to help gain insight to improve competitiveness for future boards. Dated endorsements and interview board reports must be completed for each board and all forms must be dated within one year of board convene date.
5. Parent Commands of selected Marines must ensure the following:
a. The selectees shall be assigned a Company Grade Officer as a mentor within five business days of release of this MARADMIN.

These Marines will be removed from assignment upon notification of the corresponding SDA monitor. Marines currently serving on a special duty assignment will continue until ordered to OCS.
c. The Marine's page 11 entries have been included in the Marine's OMPF.
d. The Marines have an adjudicated security clearance per chapter one of reference (a) or are under the Continuous Evaluation Program (CEP) prior to attending OCS. Marines who do not have an adjudicated clearance and are not enrolled in the CEP cannot report to OCS. An updated security clearance letter must be forwarded to MCRC POC once the clearance is adjudicated or enrolled in CEP if not provided in original application. The letter can be found on the MCRC website at www.mcrc.marines.mil then select Staff Sections, then G-3 Operations, then Marine Officer, then Naval and Enlisted Programs and scroll over to General Forms.

An update must be provided if there are changes to the original POC sheet. Marines are directed to provide all information listed on the POC sheet.
7. Selected Active Reserve (AR) Marines. Must be non-competitively augmented to the active component at the time of selection. To accomplish this, the AR select must initiate a Prior Service Enlisted Package (PSEP) via a canvassing recruiter to Marine Corps Recruiting Command to coordinate the augmentation per reference (d). Upon selection, Marines will be contacted via email by the Prior Service Enlistment Program Chief for further amplifying guidance on the PSEP package submission. Once augmented, Marines are directed to provide an updated Basic Individual Record reflecting the component change to the MCRC POC.
8. Removals, Declinations, and Deferments. Formal requests must be forwarded in standard naval correspondence format with justification, via the administrative endorsing chain of command through the General Officer level, to CG, MCRC.

Questions pertaining to status of BUMED or NAMI medical determinations must be directed to MCRC POC.
10. Pre-OCS information. OCS class dates are tentative and subject to change. Every effort will be made to schedule Marines to the first available OCS class once the Marine is medically qualified. Official notification will be sent via email notification by MCRC POC approximately 45-60 days prior to shipping. Refer to reference (f) for OCC report and graduation dates. Marines who were not initially scheduled may be contacted by the MCRC POC up to two weeks prior to an OCC class and afforded the opportunity to attend if there are additional allocations. This MARADMIN modifies reference (a) Commander's Intent, pertaining to OCS opportunities. Marines who do not attend the first two assigned OCC classes after selection will automatically be disenrolled from the program.

Failure to provide the above information once notified can result in removal from the scheduled OCS class and possible disenrollment from respective programs.
12. Additional information.
a. Marines are considered officer candidates while attending OCS and are entitled to pay and allowances commensurate with the enlisted grade shown on the original orders to OCS, but not less than that prescribed for a sergeant. Upon completion of training at OCS, the original pay and allowances for corporals and below will be restored.
b. Officer candidates who are dropped from or otherwise do not successfully graduate OCS will return to their parent commands or directed duty stations. All drops are conditionally retained in their respective programs unless it is the second unsuccessful attempt, drop on request, or the Marine is not recommended to return to OCS. MCRC POC will provide official notification of retained Marines with next course of action upon receipt of official drop package from OCS. If dropped due to medical, contact your PCM to be evaluated for the medical drop reason provided to you by OCS and begin documenting the medical process. Official correspondence will provide guidance that is required for resubmission to MCRC to forward to BUMED or to be rescheduled for an OCC. A complete physical is not required. Only medical documentation pertaining to the injury or medical condition, from onset to full duty, need to be provided.
c. Prior service candidates who are disenrolled by the Commanding Officer (CO), OCS for unsatisfactory conduct or because of a Drop on Own Request will receive a "not observed" adverse report in accordance with Marine Corps Order 1610.7B Chapter 5, paragraph 3. d. (6), "Comments pertaining to the Marine Reported On (MRO)'s drop from, or failure at, a school because of the MRO's unwillingness to try, cavalier attitude, or unprofessional conduct or ability to meet required standards are adverse". The CO, OCS, is authorized to effect involuntary disenrollment for cause during any phase of the training.
13. Post OCS graduation.
a. After graduation from OCS, Marines will report back to their parent commands or directed duty stations. All claims for travel reimbursements must be completed within five business days upon return to parent commands or directed duty stations.

Upon verification of graduation from OCS, receipt of NROTC school acceptance letter and the NROTC Unit acceptance letter, as outlined in reference (d), MCRC will request Manpower Management Enlisted Assignments (MMEA) issue Permanent Change of Station (PCS) or Permanent Change of Assignment (PCA) orders for MECEPs. Marines must submit order requests 90 days in advance of the requested report date for PCS orders and 30 days in advance of the report date for PCA orders. Additionally, the 72-month obligated time must be approved before orders will be funded.

d. Upon submission of both letters, MECEP Marines will receive PCS or PCA orders to the NROTC or affiliated school as directed. Orders cannot be issued by MMEA if both acceptance letters are not received by MCRC. A hard copy acceptance letter or official acceptance email from a school will suffice. Ensure the acceptance letters from both the NROTC unit and the school contain the same authorized semester start time frame.
e. MECEPs are not authorized to initiate any PCS or PCA moves prior to being issued orders.
f. MECEPs refer to references (a) and (i) for obligated service and pertinent information and ensure the Special Officer Program RELM type is used. Questions pertaining to re-enlistments/extensions per reference (i) should be directed to MMEA-1 at (703) 432-9019. Enlistment/Reenlistment must be approved prior to executing PCS/PCA orders. MECEPs whose enlistment/reenlistments have not been approved and have a limited timeline to execute orders (less than 2 weeks to report date) may contact MCRC POC for assistance.
