Hi Aaliyah, What do you mean by BOC? Do you wish to join as a mental health nurse or as a psychiatrist? Or a medical support officer? These all have slightly different entry pathways. You could apply to join while still in school, but you could not actually join until you have finished school (and in some cases started university, or even finished university).
