Update:

Thanks to 1stindoor, I followed the lead he gave me and successfully obtained a waiver signed by the CO of the Medical Training Group at the JFKSWCS, clearing me to attend SFAS and SFQC. We then attached this to my packet and resubmitted for the waiver from USAREC to get me into the Army.

Unfortunately, this was denied by the Surgeon General of the Army, with a statement that the Army is not allowing any waivers for hearing loss for enlistment.

I'm not giving up however. As of today my regular Army recruiters are transferring all of my documents and information to National Guard recruiters, so I'll be picking up with them next week. One way or another I'm determined to get to selection. In the meantime I'm going to work on getting an EMT certification to make myself more valuable to SF when I get there.

Again, thanks for the advice.
