thank you.No, USNA said to give them until about mid July because they're finishing with 2020 and if you don't hear by end of July to call them.
I got mine July 6. USNA/West Point class of 2021Has anyone applying for the class 2021 for the first time gotten a notification from DoDMERB for med exam yet ?
Does anyone know if there is a blood test?
Does this also apply to DS who is 17 ?I was required to be in the room with my daughter during her exam since she was only 17
No gynecological exams for females, though I recall males have to "cough," which I'm fairly sure is unpleasant.
Straight forward exam. Bring any/every documentation about ANYTHING you've had since you were 13 (broken bones, diseases, minor/major surgeries... all doctors names, numbers, final reports, and innoculations (or not; we did not vaccinate our kids and brought the forms attesting to that) etc.). You may not need it but better to have it than not.
Does this also apply to DS who is 17 ?
DS went yesterday. I had to come to the appointment since he is still 17 but I did not go in the exam room. He said he had to pee in a cup but no blood. My kids are not vaxed either. When DD was appointed we spent several weeks getting her up to date, still didn't want to do too many at once.
To another poster, he is class of 2021 and was sent the Dobmerb notification by email last week. Not sure who ordered it though as he is applying to USMA, USNA, USAFA and AFROTC. We don't think its USMA because the applications haven't opened yet.
Yes, you will have to get immunized. My children were 18 when they went to USAFA, so no longer minors, and made the decision to get the immunizations. As I recall, I contacted their pediatrician (who didn't even bother chastising me), and we set up a schedule of immunizations so that on I-day, they got only a couple shots, not a full battery.
Yes I got my DODMERB exam 3 days ago.Has anyone applying for the class 2021 for the first time gotten a notification from DoDMERB for med exam yet ?
