  OCS History   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
For those Marine Officers not attending the U.S. Naval Academy, the road to a commission as a lieutenant in the Corps begins with one of several programs at Officer Candidates School: The Officer Candidates Class, the Platoon Leaders Course, or the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps.
Officer training was further expanded and, in 1924 due to a shortage of suitable classrooms and officers' billeting at Quantico, TBS moved to Philadelphia.
On 1 June 1963, the regiment was re-designated the "Officer Candidates School." The last reorganization occurred in 1977 when women officer training was placed under the cognizance of the Commanding Officer of Officer Candidates School.
