I am a junior in high school and I am currently applying for the Air Force Academy. I recently had a wakeboarding accident and tore my medial meniscus (knee cartilage). I will be having artoscopic surgery to either repair or remove the torn cartilage. Is this surgery disqualifying for admission? Thank you.

Only if it prevents you from marching, standing, running etc. Many in the army have this type of surgery everyday so should not disqualify you.
