Read this history.....my DD shared your pain at one point. https://www.serviceacademyforums.co...rds-of-encouragement-to-dqd-candidates.64092/ Feel free to PM me if you have other questions. Also.....Mr. Mullen is awesome. Follow his advice to the "T".

My son joined as a Junior and made it to Technical Sargent and yes, it really helped him receive an appointment. I would say go for it.

"Strategic languages" help too which include at this point Russian, Arabic, and Chinese from what I last heard.

From watching a USAFA cadet just deal with scoliosis, I can add that it will affect your ability to be a pilot based on concerns over broken backs and ejection seats. The person I watched deal with this situation wanted to fly cargo and even though cargo planes don't have ejection seats the...

Mr. Mullen is amazing so have faith in the process. He helped my daughter navigate the waiver process three years ago.

We went through that in March of 2017 waiting for a waiver approval...........I know your pain!

It was mid to late March that my DD's waiver came through. Keep pushing and keep the faith!

Mr. Mullen, you helped my daughter navigate the DQ process two years ago and she's doing fantastic at USAFA today. A million thanks to you and your efforts, and the hope you kept alive for my daughter and the rest of us!

Short answer is, "Yes." Here's my DD's experience here..........good luck!: https://www.serviceacademyforums.com/index.php?threads/words-of-encouragement-to-dqd-candidates.64092/

If I were a parent helping with the SA application process again, and I will be with my son, I would by default request a copy of my child's entire medical record. It's your responsibility to know everything there is to know about your medical conditions, past and present and knowing what's in...

She took no test and while I'm not 100% sure I think that because she was an athlete in an endurance sport that they didn't choose to make her take it. Her asthma was non-existent in her mid to late teens, but she had to answer 'yes' on the medical questionnaire because she had symptoms after...

Thank you! Got one of my bebby I didn't have.............

Yes, my DD received a USAFA waiver without taking the test.

It's now been a year since my daughter received her medical DQ from DODMERB that sent her SA dreams crashing through the floor. She called me at work that day crying and we all thought that barring some miracle her chances of being accepted to an SA were now zero. After all, a “DQ” means you’re...

I'm not sure anyone will be able to tell if DODMERB will DQ him again, but I helped my DD work through a misdiagnosis of asthma in her junior year. We worked directly with her primary care physician so that they acknowledged the misdiagnosis and commented on the real cause of her respiratory...

I'm told that ALO's have a much more limited role that in previous years so theoretically your experiences should have little impact on your admissions process. The exception is when it comes time for your interview and the examination for tattoos and piercings since those requirements were done...
