Isn't that part of the application??

No summer program for juniors because there like a week between graduation and Indoc and the first trimester starts at the end of July. They do have overnight visits.

I agree with you on the medication aspect. As an educator, I read the "treatment" as medication and yes there are DQ issues as far as that is concerned. I don't remember what the medical questionnaire looks like as DS did that on his own, but to me the ADD falls under the medication portion if...

Apply and see what dodmerb does.

Yes you bring your glasses. It's basically a normal vision exam like you would have at your optometrist. If memory serves, there are directions for how many days you should not wear your contact lenses prior to the appointment.

ADD is not a learning disability.

One of the biggest hurdles is being correctable to 20/20 and it looks like you have met that. Yeah Do what you can to strengthen that weaker eye.

Check the dodmerb board for information on adhd meds and if it's waiverable. All you can do at this point is try. Best of luck!

When granted Liberty, you have to be in uniform when you are within a 50 miles radius. So, when you venture into NYC...uniform. DS had weekend Liberty much more often than we expected. It depends on the company and who is in charge. One time he donated blood...Liberty. If you make honor...

You will be in uniform for classes and PT gear for lounging around. Basically the only civilian clothes you will have are the ones your wore to Indoc.

Yes you will need a final official transcript.

Order an extra set of PT gear. Bring two pairs of shoes. Wear one to Indoc. Pack the other. Rotate your shoes during Indoc

Compressions shorts were packed and useful. DS requested Compression socks so we ordered some and sent them.

I think I mailed school supplies to DS at the end of Indoc.

DS was 20/20 one eye with no correction and 20/40 in the other correctable to 20/25. He received a DQ. He did get a waiver from USMMA. 20/20 correctable seems to be the magic number. We've also had him wearing one contact now for the past year. He just tested 20/20 correctable for the first...

Consider it cheaper than tuition.

Being correctable to 20/20 is the key. DS was DQed for being correctable to 20/25 (20/40 without glasses). Fortunately got a waiver. It was a long road.

The insurance policy for next year is $2200. If you have a PPO or can prove that your insurance works in NY and internationally, you MAY qualify for a waiver.

Definitely buy through the nex. You're already going to be lugging 18 pairs of underwear, 18 pairs of socks, 18 white undershirts, towels, toiletries, (shoes, and a bunch of other things. the #18 may or may not be exaggerated) I can't imagine carrying a computer and printer too. DS was pretty...

They give you a very specific make and model to purchase. It's in the packet they send to you.
