Welcom mchale. If you DS is medically qualified its sounds as if he already has completed DodMERB (the letters came under the name of Concorde and you took him for an eye exam and physical, right?) I have no idea about this school list issue that has come up. My own DS only has 3 schools listed-OU, EKU and Uof Cincy. Hoping we didn't get the letter and it got lost in the mail....imagine that one. He's emailing his own POC today. I'd check with your DS's POC to clarify whether he was boarded or not. Pieterm(another poster)unfortunately was told by his POC that he wasn't boarded in Jan. as he had been lead to believe. Keep hanging out with us...they have to post results sometime........
What a great site! Thank you all who have posted. Glad to hear many of us parents are just as anxious. I'm hoping someone can give me a little insight with a few things. My son has applied for AROTC. He obviously didn't qualify for the 1st board. He completed EVERYTHING back in July. Just yesterday, he received a letter stating he did not have his list of schools and might not be considered if he doesn't get this in within 15 days of receiving the letter. He did have his schools listed, only he had to list them via-email, because on the application 2 of the schools were not listed, BUT did have an ROTC program at their schools. His POC emailed him back confirming his list of schools have been put in. We were very confused, and have emailed the battalions for his top 2 schools to see if they know what happened. He has been in contact with the battalions for a few months. He has some kind of relationship with them. Does anyone know if this means he did not qualify for the 2nd board because of this? so frustrating. We have called the 'number' they have on the letter, but it says mailbox full.
Next question: what is the Dodmerb packet? My son has already been qualified, or is there something we are missing?
Any comments or advice would be most helpful.
