In The Same Boat
NO
I am also applying for both the United States Naval Academy and the Naval ROTC scholarship this year and can say I am with you. I applied last year but did not get either. I then applied to the College Program here at the University of Washington and, after a letter from my doctor explaining my symptoms, was accepted. I am now a college programmer at the UW! This year I am applying again and received my DQ letters a few days ago indicating that I must provide additional information.
I can tell you right now it is painful getting these letters but it is not the end of the road. Sometimes I think that DODMERB looks at the condition and basis their opinion off of more severe cases (arm flinging, head banging, obnoxious noise, etc.) I know of some service members, officer and enlisted, that have Tourettes. I am seeing my doctor soon to have him write another letter indicating that my symptoms do not impede my ability to succeed academically, physically, and mentally, and would recommend you do the same. As long as there are no medications or 504 plans involved, I say you and I have an awesome chance of getting that waiver.
My advice: Speaking from experience, it is very easy to get frustrated.Just don't give up, not even the slightest bit, because if you do, if you don't put forth your best effort, there won't be any waiver. If you want it, you are going to get it.
Good luck to you and see you in the fleet!
