    NROTC Medical Waiver Denied Question

    I don't know the answer to your question, but I would think the people on the DoDMERB forum are more likely to know the answer than those on this forum

    DoDMERB and AOG scholarship

    My son just received an AOG scholarship. His situation is a little weird. Somehow, when he was applying to SLS, he got put into an early physical category and had his physical on 1/31 instead of in July like everyone else. I know that the physicals are valid for two years, so if he doesn't get...

    Semester Grades Update

    I'm pretty sure you have to have the school fax it because it has to be an "official transcript", just like they have to be the ones to mail it

    Semester Grades Update

    This happened to my son - his school mailed on the 17th. He emailed his team on Friday asking if he should send another copy. They said to fax it, and the school did it today. The number changed to 7 in less than 2 hours. I would try to get the fax number of your region by calling first thing...

    waiver process

    My son was dq'd for spondylolysis and a waiver was requested by USMA. DoDMERB sent the letter on Nov 16, and it asked for two administrative remedials (a doctor's note releasing him to full unrestricted activity and an orthopedic questionnaire addressing current activities). These were sent in...

    Parent Help

    I don't know if this would work, but if you could emphasize the academic and leadership aspects of SLS (it is, after all a leadership seminar), that might help. You could even tell them that it looks good on college applications, which is true. I think that, since you've already gotten in to...

    delay in getting medical records

    sorry, I've been in the hospital for the past 5 days and couldn't respond. You could call and see if they are in by now. I think it was pretty fast that my son's got processed, even though we didn't overnight it.

    delay in getting medical records

    Well, my son sent all the paperwork in the very next day, including the cover sheet you recommended and just received a letter asking for the exact same two remedials. It's as if they never received the packet (which was quite thick). Now what to do?

    delay in getting medical records

    Hi, my son had his DoDMERB physical in January. He got a letter requesting medical remedials. They are all medical records to document two things in his history (doctors reports, radiology, pathology, and physical therapy). It is complicated by the fact that his doctor transferred from private...

    Accepted!-SLS

    Wait list SLS Does anyone know what your chances are if you are wait-listed? The letter said they would notify by April 15, which is a long time! I was just wondering how often a wait list person actually gets accepted.

    sports question

    2012mom: Good point. He is doing more things to take the place of lacrosse, but I'm not so sure they are leadership-intensive. I think he needs to think about this. Spanky58ggpt: You're right about lacrosse - it was just for fun and to be with friends. He would drop it in a heartbeat if he...

    sports question

    My son is a junior who plays varsity AAA football and lacrosse. (He's not division 1 material though, mostly because of size). He has a 3.9 gpa and is taking 3 APs and one honors class this year. Football has year-round conditioning, 4 days a week for 2h/day in the off season for people not...
