    Medical Waiver Process

    He was given contacts w the Waiver Authority just recently by his DoDMERB case manager. But wasn't sure if we could set up a call to talk w them about the AMI. We have some records from his physician, but just wanted to check before submitting.

    **New email address for Larry Mullen, DoDMERB **

    Darn. Thanks for the heads up. Reading through this forum, he was such a helpful person. Retirement well deserved.

    **New email address for Larry Mullen, DoDMERB **

    Mr. Mullen - My DS is a HS senior and 3yr AROTC recipient. We are both a little confused by what to specifically supply as part of his Administrative AMI. Concerned providing what we interpret it to be may be too little and thus lead to a negative status change. He is a minor and I need to know...

    Medical Waiver Process

    For the AMI, are you able to reach out for clarification on the information to submit? I ask bc my DS's is a little vague and worried to supply insufficient information and having a status issue as a result.

    Can remedials be appealed?

    Curious if your AMI for R170.00 also stated for previous 12 months. Our DS just had that and it's a bit confusing as well.

    Waiting Receipt of remedial

    @texasjzw, would you still submit a personal statement for an Administrative AMI that may help, even if not requested? Our DS is to submit a 12mo medical history basically (R170.00) but there isn't any medical events in the last 12mo that may explain an ongoing medication. Would you 'willingly'...

    Enuresis Waiver?

    I see this is an older post but with a similar situation. My DS just received a 3yr AROTC as a high school senior. DoDMERB is 'waiting on remedial' now as we gather the information from his provider. Our concern / question is given how the condition is listed in such records but with no current...

    DoDMERB Medical Status

    Can AMI be directed to a physician or should the candidate do something? I say that as my DS status went from under review to awaiting receipt as well, but no correspondence. Just making sure.

    Current Medical Status: Awaiting Receipt of Remedial, meaning?

    In two days, my DS status went from Under Medical Review to Awaiting Receipt of Remedial. There isn't any other information / correspondence posted. FYI, this is for a 3yr AROTC scholarship. Which party do you contact for clarification or are we still in wait mode?

    AROTC Scholarship - Multiple Transfers

    Can a 3yr AROTC scholarship transfer twice? A current HS senior selecting a school of his choice, but a different campus must file a transfer. However, he has a desire to transfer to another school after freshman year in which he was deferred this year. Can he transfer again, which will be when...

    DoDMERB timeline

    Very helpful. And good to know that it can simply be a just what the status says and nothing more. Doing this in mid-April sure doesn't help matters. Kind of stuck as the school of choice, ERAU Daytona, is unaffordable w/o the scholarship. Thanks for you input.

    DoDMERB timeline

    I'm curious what came of your situation as my DS status just changed to that as well. He's a 3yr AD ARTOC recipient. Is there anything we can do to be proactive in the meantime?

    DODMERB Optometrist Exam

    Found your post after my son failed the depth perception as well as part of the AROTC scholarship exam. All other portions were fine. Is that a concern for DQ?

    DODMETS: Be Your Own Best Advocate!

    Also, for those that have gone through this before. The physician mentioned during the physical exam this week that we may get questioned from the DoDMERB for a particular medication. Is it helpful to go ahead and request medical records / notes from the pediatrician now in case or do they make...

    DODMETS: Be Your Own Best Advocate!

    Interesting feedback from one ROO yesterday that my DS is considering is that they would not accept him into ROTC as a 3yr if he is DQ'd. Is that the norm? Like you mentioned, I've read and heard others still participate in ROTC but just not receive the scholarship benefits.

    DODMETS: Be Your Own Best Advocate!

    At this stage in the game, being April already, how do schools treat the late scholarship recipients that are just now scheduling their exams? More to the point, IF they are DQ in the May / June timeframe and will thus be waiting on waivers well into the school year, are you transitioned to a...

    Changing Providers for DoD MERB Exam

    My DS just received a 3yr AROTC scholarship. Two questions. 1. Does he need to complete asap given next year as a freshman he will not be on scholarship? 2. Is it difficult or negative to change providers to his current Pediatrician (17yr old)? Thank you.

    Scholarship transfer question

    Which school/contact should you initiate in such instances? My son received the 3yr this week, but the school he really wanted was not on the list of schools during the process as they just restarted the program in '23 (Not a hosted school either). So, how best do you initiate that transfer request?

    Army ROTC 2023-2024 3rd Board

    Thanks a ton! One other question you may know. A school he is very interested in just restarted their program this past year and was not listed as an option during the process. IF he decides on that school, is it possible to 'transfer' the scholarship in such a case?
