  • OCS was accessible in a number of ways. Enlistees with exceptional qualifications, such as a university degree, could apply for admission upon their recruitment, going there immediately after their successful completion of basic training.

In addition, enlisted personnel with proven track records of quality leadership, tactical or strategic thinking skills, or courage and forethought in combat, could be recommended by an officer of command rank. Gunnery Sergeant Laera ReyolĂ© was one such enlistee, having earned the respect of Captain Teeklak Sookanado through her ability to effectively train new recruits. During times of war, OCS also accepted those who had held management positions within civilian organizations, such as businesses, prior to enlistment. On rare occasions, an enlistee could purchase an appointment to OCS, however this was never allowed during wartime or when the threat of conflict was present. The school offered a way for talented individuals who, for various reasons, could not gain access to the Republic's system of military academies, to achieve their full potential.
