Hello, I am a High School Senior currently in the process of attaining a waiver from NROTC for asthma medication prescription after age 13. A couple of days ago, I found out that I have a small left varicocele. I was told by the doctor that it was very minor, and did not require any treatment...

Will the academies ever give waivers to applicants if it limits their service selection upon graduation? For example, would they waive a condition that maybe cannot be considered for waiver to enter aviation but would be fine for other assignments? I understand many factors are taken into...

Hey all, I'm currently an MS2 and received word today that I will have to go through the waiver process. I got denied because of "Current or history of recurrent orchitis or epididymitis," and I was wondering about the likelihood of the waiver request being granted. I knew going in it would be a...

Good evening, I recently received word from USNA that I was being offered an LOA for the upcoming class under the condition that I am deemed medically qualified. All my files have been submitted and I am now under waiver review for two disqualifications: The first being the dislocation of my...

So I've experimented with marijuana once and drank a couple of beers. I don't recall if I disclosed this on my dodmerb form and am going to disclose it for my security clearance. Can I have it disclosed now for dodmerb without penalty?

So I've been receiving allergy shots for pollen/cat/ certain tree allergies for the last couple of months. I started receiving them after my DODMERB physical and none of the allergies were flagged as any concern. I just disclosed the allergy shots to west point. I'm currently receiving them...

I received an LOA to the Naval Academy in late January, but I finally received info from DODMERB about my braces. They want me to fill out an Orthodontic Questionnaire stating my treatment will finish before I day. However, from previous talks with my Orthodontist I know my treatment will take...

I did not tell DODMERB I had surgery to get my deviated septum fixed and wisdom teeth removed. I just received an appointment to West Point should I inform DODMERB about this now? Or is this not a big deal?

Hello, I am wondering how long waiver decisions usually take, as I am well into my second semester of college. I have received a 4 year ROTC scholarship in March of 2021, and I finished all DoDMERB AMIs by June of the same year. My waiver is still pending. Any answers are appreciated.

After DoDMERB received my IME, they requested an AMI form which I completed and sent back. I was wondering if anyone knows how quickly DoDMERB would be able to clear my exam/send my results to the USAFA? There shouldn't be any issues with the AMI as it is for an injury which has completely...

My status on the DoDMERB portal was updated last to “Qualified” last Friday, yet my Medical Examination status on USNA’s CIS is still marked as an “X”. Is it common for it to take this long to update on CIS? Is there a way I can ensure that the Naval Academy has my most recent DoDMERB status?

I received notice from DODMERBS that I am not medically qualified for USNA by reason of "a current or history of academic skills disorders, including but not limited to ADHD, dyslexia, learning disorders, or need for academic accommodations." But I don't fit into any of these categories...

Hey everyone. I recently was listed as DQ by single disqualification on DoDMERB. The codes used to disqualify me were D211.50 and D211.52. The specific reason was for a concussion I had at age 3 (2007). With this injury, I had a skull fracture, but the code used only seemed to cite “brain...

Hello, I would really appreciate any help that I can get on here. I'm so frustrated and in need of some direction on how to get my issue resolved. I answered a question on my medical questionnaire regarding allergies incorrectly in November 2020. That was stupid on my part because I've never...

I recently received a DQ while going through the DoDMERB process for my Naval Academy application. In hopes of being proactive, I got the issue checked out, and luckily, the issue was fully resolved on 1 Feb. Does anybody know who I should I send this update to (DoDMERB or USNA’s WA)?

Hi y'all I'm currently a second year (MS2) non-contracted cadet in Army ROTC. Been going through the DoDMERB process for just over a year now to contract and receive a scholarship. I was disqualified for a couple of medical conditions, all of which were waiverable except for a peanut allergy. I...

I got a notification that I was a couple pounds underweight for DODMERB and would require my physician to test me for ED/metabolic issues. Normally I’m 125 and 5’8 but at the place I did my physical it said I was 122. I was just wondering if this is a common thing or if I wouldn’t be able to get...
