So... applying to the service academies and my DoDMERB results came in yesterday. I was disqualified for asthma. However, my asthma has never been an issue growing up. It was mild as a kid, and my last attack was in the 4th grade. I am a varsity athlete year-round with a mile time around 6 minutes. But, my mom made my keep an inhaler by my side at all times (she's big on safety) and the last time I used it was probably 3 years ago. It says this all on my exam but I was still DQ'd.
My status is : Pending Waiver Submission
So my question is - how do you request a waiver? Is it automatically submitted? Are there any further tests that I can take to prove that my asthma has never slowed me down?
Please help me...give me hope....anything
