2023 SA applicants - has anyone been medically cleared yet?

I completed all the information to have my DODMERB scheduled on Aug. 1 but haven’t heard anything from DODMERB. Is that a problem?

Their system was down for quite a while, so they’re saying they are backed up at least 30 days.
 
Looks like system could be working again.

USMA sent my DD’s name to DODMERB on 24 August.

DODMERB had her files already from USNA and USAFA.

Today, her DODMERB exam for USMA was annotated as qualified.

If the interface of the system isn’t working, then that suggests to me someone is still working behind the scenes to move the exams along the process.
 
It's been over 30 days since I've been well past half done with my USNA application, and still no word from Concorde to schedule. I emailed the Academy Medical Technician and they said that DODMERB is currently unable to submit names to Concorde to start the medical process, and that they have no time frame as to when they will. I was hoping to be done with my application by September but we'll see!

Yes. This is extremely frustrating!
 
My DS took his medical and eye examine july 24 and it was sent to to Dodmets 7/27 still have a under review status
DS took his exam 7/30 AFA n NA qualified 8/15
SA profile: AFA unknown
 
Just to update. USMA & USNA say Qualified on Dodmerb, USAFA say Potential Pilot Qualified. On portals, USAFA says Qualified, USNA says let them know if anything changes since exam, USMA still says forwarded to scheduler.
 
DS’s letter from DoDMERB says “US Naval Academy: qualified” but on the web site under Status it says “waiverable see item 9”. I’ve been trying to verify what this means. I think it means his eye sight isn’t quite what it should be (which surprises us because he was 20/15 in both eyes when tested this spring).

Is DS qualified or not? We’re confused.
 
About how many days does it take from taking your last exam to the academies medically qualifying you?

My DS completed his physical and vision exams on July 20. DoDMERB received his medical data on August 17. He became USMA qualified on 8/30/2018. He is still under review for USNA and USAFA.
Therefore, my educated guess is that if there are no issues it should take from 2-4 weeks for the status to change to qualified.
