Question
If you have HDAD can you still qualify for the Air Force.
Dear James --
ADHD is generally a disqualifying condition. If it is treatable with medication, or if you have outgrown the condition, it may be waiverable.
You would have to apply to enlist and be disqualified before you could petition for a waiver.
Good luck to you.
