Hello- If my son is awarded a AROTC scholarship with 2nd or 3rd board, when is the DEoMERB exam? Do we have control over the timing? My son is on accutane for acne, but will be off it for the required 6-8 weeks before reporting to school. I am planning on stopping the drug on time by backing out the number of weeks required. If we have no control over timing, we will get involved in a DQ and a waiver situation. I would like to avoid that if possible. Thanks!They set up the physical after you have been awarded a scholarship. The scholarship is dependent on passing the DoDMERB exam.
It will be in some period of time that AROTC decides it will be. They will inform you of which doctor to see for your exam and give you a deadline to have it submitted. If it were me I wouldn't chance anything and would get him off of accutane now. You might not have enough weeks available to "back up"... assuming 6-8 weeks is the required amount of time.Hello- If my son is awarded a AROTC scholarship with 2nd or 3rd board, when is the DEoMERB exam?
