Hello, I'm respectfully hoping for a little advice and/or input from "the forum experts" or anyone that has gone through a similar journey...
I've been awarded a NPS for the 2024-2025 school year (with the offer of an additional 4 year NROTC scholarship after that, if I remain in good standing with the NROTC unit and academically at the college). I am in the process of completing paperwork and feel like something is haunting me..
I had a prior ADHD/OCD that was medicated until 12/31/22 and 1/31/23, respectively. I was completely honest about this and responded truthfully to any questions about it. I had a DoDMERB physical 10/27/23 while I was applying to USNA & USAFA for the calss of 2028 (both turned down, with no waiver process started). The examiner notes indicate: "[Rx]...stopped taking 12-31-2022 - discontinuation due to patient's PCP decisions that the medication was not needed anymore (for ADHD). Patient stable without complications, no concerns or change in behavior since discontinued" and "[Rx] - Discontinued taking 1-31-2023 due to PCP decision that patient did not need anymore for OCD. Patient currently stable without complications, no concerns or change in behavior since discontinued." .. the examiner repeated similar statements again lower on the "summary" section of the form.
Will I be stripped of the awarded NPS? Will the NROTC Scholarship be a bust next year? When will I need to complete the DoDMERB physical again?
Thank you for any input or advice.
