Hello! I have searched the forum but have yet to find a crystal clear answer on this...
My DS was DQ’d by DodMerb for ADD/meds taken after 14 years old. DodMerb site says “Pending Waiver Submission/Review” (Since 25Jan)but USAFA portal says his application is “Complete but Medically Disqualified. “. (Changed today-1Feb)No mention of waiver here. Does this mean that no waiver will be applied for and he is done for this round with USAFA?
We expected this - found out about requirement (no meds and showing academic success) at SA event the fall of his junior year. He stopped taking meds (under supervion of MD) and his grades are great 3.86 unweighted and heavy on honors/AP classes, made a 35 ACT/1580 SAT/ 5 on AP CalcBC/and was just selected as candidate for US Presidential Scholar. All this AFTER he stopped taking meds. We sent in all remedial DodMerb asked for. He is also applying to USNA but portal just refers back to DodMerb .
What steps should he take next?
