Long story short...my son received AFROTC scholarship, dq'd for peanut allergy, medical remedial, denied. Accepted at Norwich (electrical engineering) as well as U of MD (we live in MD). Basically, without the scholarship, MD will cost less, and it has a great engineering program. However, my son wants to pursue a military career. If he has any hope of military, he would choose Norwich.
We have a family friend who attended Duke on AFROTC scholarship, although it was 10 years ago, who receievd a medical waiver for peanut allergy. So, my question, is there a contact person that could tell me...straight...that there is zero chance, 1%, or good chance that an appeal or waiver next year could work? We can accept what they say, regardless, but my son would just like to hear it.
Thanks in advance.
