<p>I’ve been checking the USAFA online app. everyday now, and my medical status still says “Missing” even though the DODMERB website says that they sent my stuff in on 8/11. Is it common for it to take this long to update?</p>
<p>yep.. expect it to take a few weeks.</p>
<p>HNeedle is right... Mine took about a month to show up on the online application.</p>
<p>Lots of things have to happen between Concorde recieving the info and the USAFA processing it.</p>
<p>I have been checking everyday also. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one.</p>
<p>Just to chime in, I believe in the Candidate Booklet it says to expect to wait about a month, so I wouldn't worry too much.</p>
<p>Taz! Glad to see you are hanging in. Are you practicing for your Physical Aptitude Exam?</p>
<p>One word of caution: if three months go by without a status change, call your admissions advisor. My son missed an important form and didn't realize it, since he was in his "just waiting" mode.</p>
<p>My son's status of "Qualified" showed up on DODMERB and then on the USAFA Admissions within a couple of days after the status of "Qualified" showed up on the DODMERB website.</p>

<p>Yes I am practicing for my CFA. I am up to 14 pullups, and have been working hard on my run and pushups. I am also finishing up my last nomintaion packets. Hopefully all of this hard work will pay off.</p>
<p>If you have that much motivation, it should. Not only that, but the way you are getting everything in early puts you in the running for the Letters of Assurance (which trust me, are VERY NICE). Good job on the PT and keep it up (it'll help here).</p>
<p>Great to see you are fired up! Good work and good luck.</p>
<p>Thanks to the both of you. Hopefully in a couple of months I will be able to make that famous "Appointment" thread.</p>
<p>Lead the way Taz !</p>
<p>Well, just thought I'd throw my two cents in. Mine also got sent on the eleventh and has been on the website for a few days now. Still, probably not an issue. I might just have been at the top of the pile that DODMERB sent over. Who knows?</p>
<p>Haha. Go for it Taz, as long as I'm not far behind.</p>
