I'm curious about what consultant you used as well as how much it cost. My DS waiver was denied from Army Cadet Command for concussions received in 8th grade sports. His 3 year scholarship is now going to be lost. ...so your saying there is a way to appeal this?

This is definitely a unique situation. Both the president of NU and Larry Mullen said the same. At least the president is invested in trying to help every student at Norwich. He asked my son to come back and see him and he, personally, will help him figure out the financial aid opportunities...

Yes it was the final denial after waiver board from cadet command. This also now precludes him from going to 30 day basic at Ft. Knox. Mellen said the army does not want to put money into someone who is a liability.

Update: my son was able to meet with the President and he made the call to Larry Mullen to find out his status. And it is not good. He was denied due to the concussions in 8th grade. This seems crazy since his waiver was granted in his prior DoDMerb that expired and it was the exact same...

Yes it went through DoDMerb and was DQ'ed. I have sent him your thoughts and hope he can get some relief from the powers that be at Norwich. He was told his risk of losing the scholarship yesterday and Ironically he received his fall financial aid letter from NU today that says he will be...

He wasn't the only one I heard about late in the fall. Financial aid and Bursars said then there were a handful in his position, but I think the others resolved. He did do all his DoDMerb very early during high school...had it done in early November his senior year. He is going to talk to...

I'm not sure I explained myself well. He is on waiver, from concussion in 8th grade. First time through dodmerb he was on waiver then granted. However Army scholarships didn't arrive at Norwich before that DoDMerb expired. He had to initiate a new DoDMerb application and do new physicals and is...

New Member My son is at Norwich U., sophomore year and was awarded a 3 year scholarship. Scholarships were late to arrive in this past fall and his DoDMerb expired. So he had to get the physical/vision exams all over again and he is on waiver again (as he was the first time). Now its 4 weeks...
