I was DQ'd for "Myopia - refractive error greater than -8.00 diopters" last summer. USMA gave me a LOA and requested a remedial last fall. They ultimately denied my waiver late last month.
I can't understand it though because the doctors who did my remedial were very encouraging and said I don't have any underlying disease or signs of retinal detachment. They thought everything looked good.
I'm also an applicant for USNA and USAFA and also won a 4 year AROTC scholarship and a NROTC scholarship.
But, for DODMERB, everything says "Pending Waiver Submission/Review" and I haven't heard from anyone.
Is there any chance still? Has anyone heard of someone getting a waiver with this DQ?
