If I may, I would like to offer a suggestion. If you are looking for the opportunity to gain and learn leadership skills, you may want to see if your high school has an JROTC program. That would help you get a foot in the door that way. And if your school does not have such an opportunity and...

Not all the time. The remedial can be reviewed and you could still be DQ'd. Then you will go through the waiver process for another review and possibly another remedial. Good Luck!

Is there any kind of a deadline that DODMerb needs to release waivers by? Would be kind of nice to know considering we have deadlines with the University, and if we need to pay for school out of our pocket. We are even thinking of transferring my husbands GI bill to her. but we don't want to do...

Now taking into fact (for me) that the Marine Option doesn't offer ed delays for med school, I am banking on an Army ROTC scholarship. So, bottom line is, you want to be a doctor, Well the Marine Option wouldn't have worked for you in the long run anyway considering the Marine Corps...

dlee96, I have some questions for you. Besides being a Marine Officer vs. a Navy Officer, what is your career path? Will you be able to take that career into the civilian world? What is it about the Marine option that interests you that the Navy isn't offering and visa versa? Just curious.

Yes, we do have a point of contact, but it's still pretty much a waiting game.

The Birth certificate thing would have been nice to know before they showed up last week. You would think that would have been part of the "Welcome Aboard" package.

Wow, your lucky it happened so quickly for you and your daughter. Congratulations. We are still waiting for Waiver to be approved/denied and its been over a month since she went to see their doctor. I wonder what constitutes as a priority? School starts in one month and tuition is due in 3...

Thanks! We have been in touch with the ROTC unit, and they are aware of her status. They are treating her as if she has received her scholarship and we are moving forward with her welcome aboard package, which we have received and returned back to her unit. We have even been in touch with the...

That's funny, because we were pretty much told by several people, even financial aid, that the Navy does not want us to accept any federal grants. We can accept everything else, just not federal offers.

My dd has been on hold now since May for her medical waiver. She has until the 15th of July to declare her awards for school. Now it is to our understanding that she can not accept any federal awards just in case she receives her ROTC Scholarship. We can not wait any longer for this stupid...

My DD was awarded a NROTC scholarship back in April. After looking at everyone's post, we seem to be a little behind in the process. no fault of our own, that is a whole other story. She has just finished all of medical stuff with DoDMerb and DQ'd for a shoulder injury. Which seems to be a...
