Marine OCS Sample Schedule


With the help of our good friends over at USMC OCS Blog , we have a sample Winter OCS schedule from 2008. While your daily routine at OCS might vary slightly this year, the weekly layout is almost identical to what our interviewed OCS 2016 graduates went through.

You can expect at a minimum the following:

  • In-processing week

  • Eating faster than you’ve ever eaten in your life

  • Hours upon hours of drill

  • Picking up footlockers above your head

  • Class, class, and class

  • By the numbers movments

  • “Showering” quickly

  • Fire watch (aka guard duty)

  • Physical training

  • Losing gear/uniforms

  • Sweating constantly

  • Uniform and gear inspections

  • Constant state of hunger
