    Calling CIVTeam for remedial

    Context: I had to have surgery for a sudden pneumothorax in September 2024 (I was cleared for unrestricted activity in October that same year), which DoDMERB flagged and DQed me for. They requested paperwork, operation notes, etc. to consider me for a waiver, and as of February 5th, also...

    DodMerb disqualification/termination list

    I was wondering what would cause either disqualification or termination of an applicant to ROTC, from what I've seen it seems anything beyond depression seems rather messy to deal with and could cause outright rejection/termination. I heard I wouldn't have to worry just yet, but I want to ask...

    DQ Document—too long?

    Hi all, I've been DQ'd for past kidney issues (D174.70, a history of proteinuria), and USMA requests that I submit to DoDMERB "Records pertaining to specified medical condition." The problem is, I have too many records. I have all the follow-up appointment notes (43 pages), lab reports (11...

    Will I require a waiver, C/O ‘30

    Hello I’m applying for USAFA c/o ‘30 later this year and I’m a bit fearful about clearing DoDMERB.

    So, I very recently decided to sign up for ROTC at my university. I was prescribed adderall for ADHD symptoms in 2023 but I was never officially diagnosed. I take them only for school, my life outside of school is unaffected by my symptoms. I attend a rigorous university in a very difficult...
