Selective Service Registration

Attention: especially male juniors and seniors

Research indicates that in almost every school district there is an increase in the number of young men who fail to register for Selective Service System. Men are required by law to register within 30 days of their 18th birthday. Registration is not only a legal requirement, but a civic duty and a key component of our national defense readiness.

To help young men register, they need to go to SSS.gov. They can preregister at 17 years and 3 months of age and their registration will be held until they reach age 18.

For further information and to register please visit SSS.gov
