Hey Guys,
I just won a 4 year AROTC scholarship and filled out my DodMERB survey and went to both exams. I had eczema when I was younger and mentioned that on the self reported survey. However, my dermatologist cleared me of eczema back in october/november of 2019. I mentioned this as well on the survey. When I went to the med exam, I told the doctor all about it and brought the record of my dermatologist clearing me. Based off of this, I have a few questions:
I most likely will get DQ for it, but is getting a waiver for something like this possible?
In addition to ROTC, I was considering enlisting. When I spoke to the army recruiter after filling out the DodMERB survey, he said that since the eczema was cleared by a doctor, I didnt have to mention it when enlisting. If I dont get a waiver for ROTC and decide to enlist, since my recruiter said I didnt have to mention the history, will they look at the DodMERB and see that I listed it there for ROTC and not allow me to enlist?
Thank you guys for your help!
