DS received letter today on portal from the Director of Admissions (below). His DQ is final with no possibility of a waiver UNLESS he wins a slot? Prep school...but “solid achievement” and character? He has one of the physical conditions listed on the non-waiverable list. It’s a long shot for the waiver request to go in, it appears, but do you think if he wins an AROTC scholarship that they’d request one, even with the condition on non-waiverable list?
“A review of your record indicates you do not meet the medical standards for appointment to West Point at this time. I regret to inform you that your medical disqualification is final and your file has been closed. At a later date, if it appears that you will win a vacancy to West Point or one of our preparatory programs, we will automatically reopen your file and consider you for a waiver.
I realize that news of this nature is very distressing. Your record of solid achievement and character makes it clear that you will overcome this setback and enjoy great success in whatever you choose to do.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact your Regional Commander. Your interest in the United States Military Academy and a career in the United States Army is very much appreciated. You have my best wishes for success in all your future endeavors.”
