Need some help and info on uni programmes!

I've been looking at uni programmes like UOTC, UAS, URNU, but I've been turned down by the Army (UOTC) because of a diagnosis of Asperger's & ADHD. I talked with their doctor over emails and didn't get much info on how I'd fare with the other branches, and there seems to be a massive lack of people actually participating in these programmes as far as I'm aware - none of the unis I know seem to say much about them, nobody I know has done them, etc. I don't intend to pursue a career in the regular armed forces after university, but I really want to participate in one of the programmes that're for students in my degree. I just need some more info on whether or not I'd be able to make it past medical with the RAF & Navy or if my status as aspie will lock me out of all three

All the Armed Forces work to the same basic medical standards. There are some variations between roles, but as is always said on here, the only way to find out is to apply.
