No one can answer with any real certainty if your DS will get a waiver or not. He will get a DQ from DoDMERB and the commissioning source will look into a waiver, but will he get a waiver or not is up to too many factors. Best advice is to move forward and get through DoDMERB and the waiver...

I would agree that SA's and SMC's are heavily represented on this board, but ROTC is different. There are only 6 SMC's, but there are hundreds of Army ROTC schools out there.

I'm not disrespecting is accomplishments or resume. I rather liked the guy. What I am saying is that if he ran the same campaign now that he ran in 1992, then he would not be as successful because of the change in political climate. We can't say what he would do now differently if he was born...

Its another reason why I never have, and never will, trust political polling that is disseminated out to the public by the media. They are design to try and shape public opinion and not showing a snapshot of public opinion. I'm sure there are factual polls out there, but they are not used by...

This only applies to senior military colleges though. All other colleges don't apply.

She wants to try a pick the same major on the application that she actually wants to do, but as long as she picks a tier 1 major it should be fine. Picking a different major in the same tier is not usually a problem. Going up in tiers is usually not a problem. The only time major changes can...

That is a big issue because the closest college is easily 1 hour+ one way. It would make classes and PT almost impossible.

Its all about the slate you are on. If you are #1 in your slate, then you have a 100% chance of getting a appointment. Less than that, the chances start to drop. One has to look at this as a regional rather than a national pool.

This thread has gone to the surreal in like a hour. 😆 😆

The OP made this thread and posts only about this email in a span of 20 minutes and then vanished. That context should be considered in regards to posting this email. This is not the first time related to USAFA a one time poster drops a "bomb" thread and then vanishes. Someone has a vested...

When you write not medically cleared, are you talking about DoDMERB or the Preparticipation Physical Form that NSI has you generate? We don't need to know the reasons you are not medically qualified, I'm just trying to narrow down some facts. You do not have to be DoDMERB qualified to go to...

I wondered that also.

Your looking fine. A sports team would look better, but only do something you are interested in. Keep up the good work.
