Has anyone ever been turned away on R-Day for having bad acne. Also have you ever heard of anyone on accutane while at USMA? I understand that you cannot take it before you go, but I am unsure if they can prescribe it to you once you are there.
That being said our DD did one round of Accutane and it worked beautifully!! Good luck!!Has anyone ever been turned away on R-Day for having bad acne.

Was this before or while attending the academy?That being said our DD did one round of Accutane and it worked beautifully!! Good luck!!
She is not attending academy, she just got a AROTC 4 yr scholarship but she did it while in high school. The result though, was almost perfection. Wait until you get to academy and go see dermatologist.Was this before or while attending the academy?
Birth control pills are not an option on Accutane THEY ARE A MUST! As are monthly blood tests to prove you are not pregnant and your blood levels are normal. The use of Accutane is highly monitored for a female but like I said it is awesome!!They won't turn you away for bad skin, and agree with wait til after beast and go see the docs. It is a wonder drug, and shouldn't be an issue for you, but females using it are highly recommended to be on birth control, just FYI. In fact, some docs won't prescribe it to females without ensuring birth control, if I'm not mistaken. Good Luck!
Agreed!Accutane does not work for everyone. Some doctors will not even prescribe it, and instead give you something milder like a topical cream, before prescribing accutane.
There can be some pretty severe side effects, so keep that in mind.
