@@hah4798 theres a few trade offs. You have to do 4 years of rotc vs 12 weeks of ocs. Your college experience wont be “normal” as you will be doing rotc most of the time. However, rotc will pay for college if you qualify. all depends on what you want ur experience to be.

Class 001-17. This video brings back some memories

Just got selected, looking forward to it

Graduated in Aug 1969. 26 week course then. At each phase you would recommend five candidates in your platoon for a leadership review process. These five would go before a board which would determine their outcome. Termination, recycle to an earlier class, self-termination or allowed to continue with the current class.

In India we have 18 months course and it's very very difficult and the process to enter in the academy is also very difficult

Old timer here...OC 32-69...at that time we had a 6 month program. Started as a draftee in 68 commissioned Oct 69. Then received transfer to Signal Corps and from there had fantastic tour of duty stateside and in Nam. Worked in PR as PIO and in Nam as IO then Broadcast Officer AFVN. Choosing OCS one of best decisions I ever made. Learned a lot and made good friends. Only regret, Army changed regs on promotion and was cheated out of making Captain after year in Nam.

But I still feel it teaches a lot of good and many people woukd benefit learning discipline, teamwork, pulling your own weight, character.

Question for everyone - If you want to be commissioned, do you go to OCS immediately after BTS? How does it work? I talked to a recruiter and he said i need to enlist as an E4 (Specialist) and then apply for OCS after i've been a Specialist for awhile. Is that correct?

@saifhaque6511

If you have a college degree, you will go in as a specialist, you can apply for OCS before you go in so then your MOS is O9S. You do not need to spend time as a specialist and then apply later.
