The undersigned hereby requests, pursuant to Rule 461(a) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that the above-referenced Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-209590) (the “Form S-4”) of OceanFirst Financial Corp. (the “Company”) be declared effective at 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 14, 2016. We respectfully request that we be notified of such effectiveness by a telephone call to David C.

The Company hereby acknowledges that:
•

•
the action of the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
•
the Company may not assert Staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
Very truly yours,
