Feeling a little foolish and quite upset right now. When I spoke to the person at the medical info offices she said his waiver was adjudicated in November, which I took to mean he received a waiver. Now according to the DODMERB his waiver was denied. Totally confused. If his waiver was...
Thanks so much for the contact info. I was able to reach someone at the NROTC medical information office and they told me a waiver was issued back in November and that they will send another letter to confirm. Was waiting and worrying for two months for nothing. Wish I had asked sooner...
My DS was initially DQ'd medically then received a waiver about a week later for USNA he received his appointment in September. He received a NROTC scholarship to MIT in September and was DQ'D for NROTC in October. We have not received a waiver for NROTC. Does anyone know who we can contact...
Does anyone know about the waiver process for NROTC. Was given a waiver for the Academy 1 week after being medically D'Q but it has been 2 months since receiving my letter form NROTC that DS was medically disqualified. any help on who to contact to try to follow up with this would be appreciated.

Thanks I'm not sure if I have enough posts to send a PM but will attempt it. I have seen her posts on other threads and would love to talk to her. If its's possible for you to PM and let her know I am interested in some insight I would appreciate it.
For as much as I would love...
Thanks for responding so quickly.

My DS was given an appointment to the Academy in September, NROTC scholarship to MIT in October accepted to MIT in December. We are over the moon!!! Now he has a tough decision to make. His plan is to major in electrical/nuclear engineering. He is leaning towards MIT. Is anyone already...
Sorry if I don't get this its all so confusing. Does he apply for NROTC scholarships in his junior or senior year. He is currently a junior. His goal is MIT He has the academics to succeed and hopefully gain acceptance but would he more likely get the scholarship for another school on his...
I'm new to this site so not sure if I'm doing this right. My son will be applying to the service academies this year and also to private colleges with with the hope of receiving a ROTC scholarship to offset cost. Is he allowed to apply for a NROTC scholarship if he is applying to the academies...
This is the first time I've used this sight so not sure if I'm doing this right. My 16 year old son wants to attend the Naval or Coast Guard Academy. When he was 14 he fractured his L5 vertebrae had short term out patient Physical Therapy and was released with no restrictions. One year later...
