You have the option of selecting whether you want to serve in the Ground, Air, or Law component of the Marine Corps. We are the only branch of service that can offer guaranteed flight opportunities to qualified individuals. 3. You will be paid up to $5,000 (for a 10 week session) while you are in training. In addition to that, your room and board, food, and medical needs will be provided for while you are attending OCS. When you accept your commission, you will receive an inclusive salary of approximately $49,000 per year. 4. You will be offered a commission as a Second Lieutenant when you graduate from college and complete all of the program requirements.
