Marine Corps Recruiting Command (MCRC) requires high caliber company grade officers for assignment as Recruiting Station (RS) Executive Officers (XOs), Operations Officers (OpsOs), and Officer Selection Officers (OSOs) across the nation. A panel consisting of staff from Manpower Management Officer Assignments (MMOA) and MCRC will convene in July 2026 to identify and select officers for assignment during FY27. 2. Eligibility Criteria 2.a. Tour Control Factor (TCF). Officers who will complete the prescribed tour, on their current set of orders, no later than (NLT) 30 September 2027 are eligible. If an officer does not meet this requirement, the officer must contact their Primary MOS (PMOS) monitor to discuss eligibility and waiver requirements. 2.b. Career timing. Only those officers whose career timing that supports a full 36-month tour at MCRC are eligible. Those officers in zone for promotion, selected for, or already promoted to Captain are eligible for assignment to MCRC. Captains who are forecasted to be selected to the rank of Major during their MCRC assignment are ineligible for assignment. Captains with a Date of Rank (DOR) of 1 November 2025 or earlier will not screen as they will not have the career timing to support a full 36-month tour. Officers who do not meet this requirement should reach out to their PMOS monitor to discuss waiver requirements. 2.c. Career Designation 2.c.1. Officers who are not yet career designated but will screen for career designation in FY27 will be considered. If an officer does not meet this requirement, the officer must contact their PMOS monitor to discuss waiver submission requirements. 2.c.2. Per reference (a), when authorized by the Deputy Commandant, Manpower and Reserve Affairs, officers selected on the MCRC Company Grade Panel will be offered career designation in conjunction with acceptance of orders. These officers will receive a notification in Marine Online (MOL) and shall accept or decline the offer of career designation at a date published on the future results MARADMIN. Officers who decline career designation will be considered asresigning in lieu of orders and will execute their current EAS. 3. Process 3.a. Volunteer Incentive Program. In FY27, MMOA will screen qualified volunteers for assignment to MCRC duty. Qualified volunteers that are selected will receive priority slating for their preferred billet vacancies. Officers will communicate their volunteer status via the survey link below and are required to submit no less than one letter of recommendation to their PMOS monitor. 3.b. A list of eligible officers and vacancies can be found at: https://www.manpower.marines.mil/Manpower-Management/Officer- Assignments/Plans-and-Programs-MMOA-3/.

The deadline for preference submission and board correspondence is 2359, 30 June 2026. 3.d. Assignments made by this panel are for a tour control factor (TCF) of 36 months. Requests to resign or retire prior to the completion of the 36-month TCF will not normally receive favorable endorsement. Final authority for requests to resign or retire is the Deputy Commandant, Manpower and Reserve Affairs, in accordance with reference (b). 4. Incentive. In accordance with reference (c), officers who are assigned and successfully complete a tour as an RS XO, RS OpsO, or OSO will have the option of assignment to either Resident Career Level School (CLS) or the geographic location of their preference. Officers who will be promoted to Major at the completion of their tour are ineligible for the incentive for Intermediate Level School (ILS) but may compete on the Commandant’s Education Board (CEB) for assignment to Resident ILS. Marines promoted to Major are still eligible for the geographic location of their preference. 5. Billet Openings. The below listed vacancies are projected for 2027.
