Not everyone can be a
Marine. And not every Marine can be an officer. Young men and women who join
our ranks right out of high school enlist in the Corps. Officers, however, are
usually college graduates who have either completed the Platoon Leaders Class
or attended Officer Candidates Course shortly after graduation. This is an
excellent opportunity to lead this nation's most elite warriors, and the
ability to do so will set you apart. Become a Marine Corps Officer and you will
never look back - except at those trying to keep up.
Do You Have What it Takes?

My
name is Captain Plascencia. I am the Marine Corps Officer Selection
Officer for Riverside, San Bernardino, Pomona, and Las Vegas. I interview and select some of America's
brightest college students and graduates to become Marine Corps
Officers. Selected individuals can pursue one of two programs:
Platoon
Leaders Class (PLC) - Open to all regularly enrolled full-time students from Freshman to Juniors.
Officer Candidates Course (OCC) - Open to graduating seniors and college graduates.
Individuals
that complete training are eligible to receive a commission in the
United States Marine Corps as 2nd Lieutenants.
This is not ROTC. Training takes place (for PLC) entirely during the summer
and does not interfere with your school schedule. Training for OCC takes
place 3-times a year (October / January / June). See
Programs for specific information in regards to PLC or OCC.
I
am looking for the best, self-determined and confident young men and women who are mentally, morally,
and physically fit to lead Marines.
