Backstory, tried to go to OCS after undergrad and was DQ'd from MEPS before I had been re-evaluated from VA or before I had any documentation from the VA about my diagnosis. Decided to pursue a Masters and ROTC.
I was diagnosed with Adjustment Disorder from the VA but was quick to...
I was given R230 which states: DOES NOT REQUIRE A PHYSICIAN'S APPOINTMENT: Please provide copies (NOT ORIGINALS) of ALL mental health/medical treatment and/or hospitalization records REGARDING $ $$ , to include ALL applicable inpatient and outpatient records including, but not limited to, VA...
LOOOOOOONG story short. I am prior service who was diagnosed with adjustment disorder through the VA(after separation). I never thought I had adjustment disorder, and I never claimed to. I just knew I was dealing with alot in my life and the VA had me sit down with someone. After I found out my...
Hey guys! I am a junior in high school from Connecticut and I plan on applying to USAFA. This is a list of my current "resume" per say. I will try to be as detailed as possible.
I go to a recently renovated school with a block schedule. In total, I have 8 classes split between two...
Hello,
I am a candidate for the US Naval Academy with a conditional offer of appointment(LOA). Quite a while ago, I sent in my initial medical exam, and was then requested to send several remedials, which I promptly submitted. Several weeks later, I was medically disqualified for asthma after...
Hi, I'm going to be a freshman in college next year in ROTC at VT.
However, currently I'm in the process of enlisting but there's been a problem. I'm trying to get it authorized so I can ship out earlier to make it to tech in time for New Cadet Week. If it works out, it'd be split option with...
This generally relates to ROTC, but wasn't sure where to put it. I'm enlisting this summer to go to Army basic training this summer and AIT next summer so I can do AROTC and go to college, but for basic (even ROTC also):
1. How much running is typically done and how often? And what is the...
I have just received the email stating my status is now denied upon grounds of qualifications. I have my dodmerb complete and my congressional nomination as well. What should I do now?
I'm a senior in high school this year and I was looking to enlist in Army reserves after I graduate. However, I can't just enlist in a unit because I need to be non-deployable so I can finish college in 4 years then go active.
Is the split-option route good? and am I deployable after...
Im currently in the second quarter of my junior year. Im typically pretty decent with my grades, however, this quarter i'm struggling with chemistry (failing) and trig/precalc (just passing). They are both college prep classes and im really concerned that this is what's going to eliminate my...
I am a sophomore in high-school so I still have about a year before things start moving. I feel as though I'm on the right track to attend an academy but I'm also staying motivated to keep improving. I believe that one my strengths is that all I've ever wanting to attend one of the...
Hi all,
As the title says, I received two nominations, one from Rep. Ted Poe and another from Sen. John Cornyn for the Naval Academy and I don't really know what to do. Rep. Ted Poe sent his nominations early, so I have him as my nomination in the application portal. I am also applying to USAFA...
So, I am about to take my CFA tomorrow, and it is late, but I was wondering if these stats would be enough for me to pass:
Basketball throw: 39 ft
Pull up: 1
Shuttle Run: 9.7
Sit ups: 83
Push ups: 45
1 mile run: 7:28
Thanks!

Good Afternoon,
I was just wondering how you apply to the USAFA prep school? I was going to use this as a backup if I don't get accepted to USAFA. Is it a separate application or does everyone who applies gets considered for a prep school appointment? I plan to apply out of high school. Thanks...
Good Afternoon (To all you all in the mountain time zone),
I just want to know what kind of things the Academy puts a lot of bulk in when applying. I know they like people who are involved in the community, diverse applicants, and academics but is there any specific examples they look for? Do...
Hey all,
I am 14 years old and I have made the decision to apply for USAFA when I am 17. I am looking for advice on what to do now to strengthen my application. I am a freshman in a STEM high school, I take 10th-grade math, pre-ap biology, CE (Concurrent Enrollment at a college) English...
Hi,
I have received an LOA last week for USNA. The only issue is that I might have compartment syndrome in my legs, and if so, I would need surgery for them down the line. The issue is that I really want to go to the academy but I don't want something like this stopping my dream as a whole...
Hi Everyone,
I have quite the complicated situation, which hasn't really made sense to anyone I have spoken with.
I was recently denied a waiver to permission to physical at MEPS by the Army NG after waiting for 8 months. (Dissaprove NPS Applicant request MEPS Physical for scoliosis (M4120)) -...
I just created an account for DoDMERB yesterday, after USNA added my application and I entered the system. Currently, under status, it says "Under DoDMERB Review." What exactly should I do from here? I have not received any emails or correspondence of any kind. Should I just wait for now...
