waiver

My son was award the 4 year national scholarship on January 16, 2024. He has been under waiver review for awhile now and I am wondering if he will be able to attend NSI this summer if the status doesn't change soon. If the waiver makes it so he cannot attend NSI, will that void his scholarship?

Hey all, Welcome to the 214786th thread of waiver questions! 1. How will the Academy reach out to me (how long does it typically take this time of year)? 2. My DoDMERB Portal status says "under waiver review" is this the default or am I under review for a waiver? 3. My USNA portal still has a...

A little background: (Applying to USAFA) In 2022, I intermittently trialed Vyvanse for attention issues. My last dose was Aug 11, 2022. This is over the 15 months required. I was never diagnosed with adhd or any disorder, I just trialed it. After stopping, my doctor determined that the issues...

I was DQ'ed for high-frequency hearing loss in one ear (very minor btw). My ENT doctor told me it is not a problem at all and that he does not ever see it being an issue for service or life in general. It is not progressive and is only at a very high frequency so it pretty much just means I...

I've recently been DQ'd for a case of CECS that was successfully surgically treated a little under a year ago. I'm wondering what exactly are the criteria for granting a waiver. I've returned to full activity with no further issues. I've submitted my surgical notes and a letter from my treating...

I was medically disqualified for a history of eczema on 11/29 by DoDMERB and was waived by USNA on 12/10. This is exciting because I do not have an LOA and the pharmacy records I submitted to DoDMERB included prescriptions from only 2 years ago to treat eczema which initially led me to believe...

I am writing as I have a DS which we found out had a Pilonidal Cyst over the summer. At the time, he had it drained, and when we talked to the doctor, they said if it did not have an issue, then to not worry about it and no procedure to remove the effected area; we had another episode where it...

Does anyone know if there is a waiver for self harm incidents for the United States Naval Academy. It so I would love to hear about the process of obtaining one.

I did my medical examinations in August and am now in a waiver process for both asthma and a labrum tear. After sending in documents and pharmacy records while in the remedial phase, I was sent my DQ in early September. I have not had any symptoms of asthma since I was a really young kid, but...

Hi I have a family member who was medically disqualified and could not get a waiver a little over 2 years ago from NROTC for ulcerative proctitis (extremely mild- took medicine for 6 weeks and has not been affected since then). He is now about to graduate college and is interested in going to...

My son was diagnosed with Asperger’s before the DSM-5 was published and the diagnosis was converted to high functioning autism. The initial diagnosis occurred when he was 5 years old. He received behavioral health services until he was 12 to help with sensory and social issues (and to help...

When I was like 3 I had an inhaler and a doctor said I had asthma, but two others said I had sports induced wheezing, and I had an inhaler for a bit, but after about 6 I didn’t use it any more, until last year, where I got an inhaler for a swim team, but never used it once, and I don’t know if...

So here's my situation: I am currently a college programmer in NROTC that just applied for the scholarship. I had a 3.96 GPA my fall semester, am getting a similar GPA this semester, and have a 94 PRT score. I think my chances of getting scholarship are pretty decent, but I'm concerned that my...

After going through all the remedials I am being told by my allergist that he will tell dodmerb that I will have to carry an epi pen. I’ve never had any history of anaphylaxis but do have mild reactions. Do I have a chance to get a waiver? Is there anything I can do? I attended the usna summer...

I guess my real question is, am I about to be turned down for a medical waiver? I can log into my USNA account just fine, but when I attempt to log into DoDMERB, it says “invalid username or login”. I did get logged in last night and was able to view it. Any help would be great, thanks!
