GETTING STARTED
Knowing where to look for information
can be a lifesaver during the whirlwind of
graduation. We’ve provided some additional
resources to help you plan, prepare, and stay
connected to us before you arrive.
USMC Officer Candidates School Website:
trngcmd.marines.mil/Northeast/Officer-
Candidates-School/
The website contains a lot of the same
information found here in the Graduation
Guide and is great for family members and
friends who could not receive this guide. MCB
Quantico also has a website with information
about the base as well as answers to
frequently asked questions.
The USMC Officer Candidates School, MCCS Quantico, and MCB Quantico websites are the ONLY official websites for
events, rules, and other information about MCB Quantico. Please be aware that other non-Marine Corps websites may post
information that may be misleading, incorrect, or out of date.
USMC Officer Candidates School Facebook Page:
Facebook.com/usmcocs
Our Facebook page provides an easy way to connect with the USMC Officer Candidates School team and other families. We
often post videos and photos of events to give you a better idea of what to expect. Our Facebook page is also the best way
to get current information on all of our events. This page also has albums of candidates during various stages of training.
Keep an eye out; you may get to see photos of your candidate!
The MCB Quantico website has information about the base as well as answers to frequently asked question
and social media pages:

services MCCS offers to our Marines.
