The link USAFA sent me to provide this information doesn't seem to work... Anybody else having problems with this one? Thanks!
 
I am, I already had to fill it out in October and just received the same email... strange.

It seems like there is no place to put the actual height and weight on the site?
 
I used the link in the email and it worked just fine (I submitted it from my phone).
 
The link does not work from my laptop. From my phone it says I have already submitted it (probably blank spaces when I tried it on my computer). I will have to call admissions.

It might initially be blank for those whom they have already received the info from DODMERB
 
Same here. When clicking on button in email it states info was already submitted by DODMERB.

Hopefully this is a good indicator...
 
DD just got the email requesting measurements. Says she is out of standard even though she was under the limit on the website for her height/weight and also weighed while fully clothed. Was there a clerical error somewhere or a unpublished secret standard?
 
My son's link worked. (And they likely don't have his DoDMERB info yet, as his exam was ordered first by another SA and it hasn't updated in his USAFA portal yet.)
 
This is what I'm getting now:

"You have already submitted your height and weight information or we have received the information from DoDMERB. If you believe this is an error, please contact USAFA Admissions Office."

I'm DoDMERB qualified since August, so I hope they included my height/weight.

Thanks for your help SpiritCommitteeLiaison!

If your DD believes there's an error, have her email her admissions advisor and request clarification.

DD emailed the team and was told to get measurements. Still confused because she is clearly below the published minimums on the website.

Sounds like they want to get verification of the measurements in case they were fat-fingered into the system. I recommend that your daughter do what they advise and get measured again.

Why publish a height/weight standard if it is not the standard? My Navy brain is having difficulty with this concept... It's like double secret probation from Animal House!

Not sure that that is the issue. If there's a clerical error upon inputting your daughter's numbers, then that needs to be corrected. For all we know, the doctor/nurse wrote the number down incorrectly.

Do you mean below the published maximums, meaning under the max weight for her height? If you mean under the minimum weight for her height, she will have to submit measurements. My ds did last year because he was under weight and had to submit his measurements.

She is under the MAX allowed by USAFA's published minimums by 3lbs but USAFA has requested body fat measurements.

USAFA admissions did not clarify anything - just simply stated she needed to get measured without explanation which begs the question...what is the standard if not the PUBLISHED standard? How do we check with DoDMERB to see if they entered the correct body mass?

Just got the height/weight email also. Just wondering, does this mean anything? Dodmerb scheduled, but not completed yet. Thanks!
