Good evening all, I'm currently in my 3rd year as an AFROTC cadet. I have braces and my doctor says I need maxillofacial surgery to correct my bite. My question is, will this surgery get me thrown out of the program? If so, are waivers applicable? Are these things difficult to get waived? I...

Hello, I am currently a junior in high school who will be applying for the NROTC Marine Option scholarship. As a child I was diagnosed with asthma and was given an inhaler, but I never had any issues and have competed in many sports my whole life. I have talked to my recruiter about this and he...

First things first. I am 2Q’d with a nomination and a letter of encouragement. I am a class of 2022 hopeful. However, after much encouragement that my waiver would go through, it was denied. When I was younger (14 or so) I had a lot of eczema all over my body. Now, i have very little on...

I apologize if this is the wrong place for this thread, as I am new to this forum. I wanted to get some information/first hand accounts about getting a waiver for an allergy. I've seen a lot of posts about food allergies- but none about my situation. I have a history of allergies to ants. I have...

During AFROTC, if someone get's DQ for DoDMERB but gets a waiver, do they then have to do the same thing when they get their AFSC? Let's say you took the DoDMERB, got DQ, got a waiver and now you got a slot as a Missileer one year later, but need a Flight Class III physical. Do you have to go...

I'm an AS200 in AFROTC. I have my DoDMERB appointments coming up in a few weeks. I have a minor allergy to peanuts. I can eat small amounts of them, all that happens is when I have too much I get a rash on my arm. I'm constantly exposed to them at home, cross contamination on a daily basis, and...

I just received a letter saying my DODMERB medical exam was disqualified because of a history of adjustment disorder. I am very shocked because I have never had any mental health problems and there is no record of any mental health problems on my file. I have been told that there is a waiver...

I got DQed on my DoDMERP for Acute Benign Childhood Myositis. It was a muscle disease that I had as a kid. It made it so I couldn't walk for a few days. It's grouped in with several degenerative muscular diseases more common in elderly people, so I feel like that might have been why it go...

Hey all, I am a cadet at Florida State University. Currently an AS250 and getting ready for field training this summer. I just got word from Cadre and DODMERB that my Waiver for my D225.00 History of any dislocation, subluxation, or instability of the shoulder, was denied. It is very confusing...

Hello, I have been fighting with DODMERB for over a year now for having asthma listed in my medical records. The problem is that I was never really dependent on any medication (even though I was prescribed some), and I have had a pulmonologist write me a letter saying so. I have taken several...

So I went to meps for the army for the first time and they told me to go to a dermatologist for my upper arms which were red. My dermatologist said it's keratosis pilaris and won't affect my military service but meps still wanted me to come back for a consult so, I went to there dermatologist...

My DS was just notified that he needs an ADD waiver. I've read all the threads on this and I'm hoping to confirm that he 1) needs a letter from the prescribing dr that he no longer is on meds (off for 3 years) and when he stopped taking them and 2) possibly a psych evaluation to establish that...

Hello everyone, I received a scholarship from AFROTC earlier this year, unfortunately, I was medically disqualified for current or history of atopic dermatitis or eczema after 12th birthday. I only ever had one flare up, which occurred last year around late March/early April, and I was...

My daughter was granted a medical waiver from an academy (medically cleared to be considered for appointment) but was denied a waiver by the same branch ROTC. She has a pending waiver submission/review for another academy and has not heard yet whether she will receive two other ROTC...

Hey, I have a LOA to USMA, but I have to get a medical waiver. I know it's impossible to tell if a person is going to receive a waiver, but am I more likely to receive a waiver if I have a LOA? Or is it still possible that I'll be denied? Thanks.

Hey, my current status right now is "Remedial Requested." I have a general idea of what to do, but I don't know where to find the remedial codes. Can I find it somewhere on the website, or am I going to be sent something in the mail with detailed instructions? And if it's going to be sent to me...

I was disqualified by DoDMERB, due to history of spinal fusion with instrumentation. I had a spinal fusion about 4 years ago to correct scoliosis, two metal rods and crews that can be taken out at anytime, but is just an unnecessary surgery. My detachment proceeded to submit a waiver for me...

Hi, I am a third year cadet looking to get a pilot slot this spring. I need a height waiver but my cadre won't give me a definite answer on what needs to be done to get one and I worry that I am going to run out of time to accomplish the tasks it will take to get one. My standing height is 61"...

I recently found out I was denied a waiver from Navy ROTC and I would like to know how appealing the waiver decision works. I checked the DoDMERB website just to see if anything happened and that is when I found out the decision so I haven't been sent a letter detailing anything from Navy ROTC...
