Hello all,
I'm currently going through the process of the Army ROTC Scholarship application. I had some questions that you all might be able to answer about an ADD Waiver.
I took ADD medication (concerta) from 6th grade to 11th grade. I stopped taking it 5 months ago in April. With no medication I have been fine, finishing my junior year with a GPA of 4.1, scoring a 32 on the ACT, and getting 4s on 3 AP Exams.
By the time I am going to DoDMERB, I will likely (depending on when the appointment is) have not been off the meds for 12 months as the standard requires. However, by the time I would be starting school in August of 2018 it will have been 16 months, which is well over the standard.
So my question is this: What are my odds at a waiver? Which date matters: screening or entry into ROTC?
Thanks in advance for the replies.
