I posted here about 4 months ago about trying to get a waiver for Dyslexia in order to attend the academy, but in the end that fell through. I'm still very interested in the Air Force and would like to do ROTC, does anyone know if I am out of luck entirely as I did not get the waiver, or if...

I applied to the Air Force Academy, got a Primary Nomination, and was totally set to attend, when I got a medical disqualification for dyslexia. I submitted my files, believing a waiver would arrive soon due to a variety of factors, but it is yet to appear. My question is, will this limit me...

I was totally in that chain of though, "OMG I must do math" but I've come to grips with the fact that having recieved a C in every advanced math class I've taken (the only Cs I've recieved since 5th grade), I might want to stick with History. Hopefully I can still be in Intelligence or something...

If you were a guy than yes, but fortunately for yourself you are a girl. Can you beat these scores if you retook it? Unfortunately its a little late in the game to be retaking them, but if you can, retake it.

If she ranks her slate, than it is my understanding that it greatly improves your chances. I am currently my MOCs Principal Nominee, but I'm still waiting for the admission's boards decision. I'm not sure if having the principle nomination means I'm in, but I understand it helps, I also...

I hope so :biggrin: My friend Mark went to West Point with no accent and came back with a southern accent

I'm a pro-military, pro-gun, Republican country music fan in San Francisco, and I may be just on a stereotype, but I've heard I'd have more company in Texas :D

Damn your a beast. Congratulations on all your appointments, hopefully you make the best choice :D

Yes, my ALO confirmed this for me, I was scared since I need to get a waiver to :)

I got a Principal Nomination for the USAF to. Just have to get that dyslexia waiver and pass the CFA

Thanks Mr. Mullen, I sent them to you.

Hola, I am applying to the Air Force Academy for next year, and I am making considerable progress. So far I have recieved Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's Principle Nomination. Unfortunately, I have dyslexia. Dyslexia has never stopped me from doing anything before, and I saw no reason...

I'm not sure about the DoDMerb, I was untill very recently, and I found out that I have to deal with a potential disqualification because of dyslexia, and having broken my collarbone two summers ago. My dyslexia is currently the most dangerous thing, simply because I am technically involved...

I've been diagnosed as Dyslexic, and recieved accomodations during high school, but by my junior year I was inducted into the National Honor Society, and I am now a tutor for people with learning disabilities. Am I necessarily disqualified?

I just found out today that I am going to be Pelosi's Principal Nominee. Does this mean that I have a higher chance of getting in? Thanks guys,

One of my friends got arrested for riding the Public Transportation without a pass and a court hearing and stuff, but was alright for West Point, so I can't imagine this is a make or break thing.

My ALO told me he represtent about 11 schools, and I was the only applicant for the Air Force Academy, additionally the nurse told me that their had only been one other person in the area applying for the Air Force this year who had gone through the process.

I've already sent in my letter, just wondering if anyone knew any additional information. Thanks Ed

We appreciate the sympathies, but not all of us can be from Texas.
