2. How to Register:
REGISTER ONLINE
Young men may now register online with Selective Service. www.sss.gov
AT THE POST OFFICE
Selective Service "mail-back" registration forms are available
at any Post Office. You can fill it out, sign it, affix postage, and mail it
to Selective Service, without the involvement of the postal clerk. Men living
overseas may register at any U.S. Embassy or consular office.
BY MAIL
A young man may also register by filling out a Reminder Mailback
Card. Selective Service sends this card to many young men around the time they
turn 18. Mailback cards are also available at some post offices. A man can
fill out the card at home and mail it directly to Selective Service. Forms will be sent
to: Selective Service System, Registration Information Office, P.O. Box 94638,
Palatine, IL 60094-4638.
CHECK BOX
Another way a young man can register is to check a box on the application form
for Federal Student Financial Aid (FAFSA form). A man can check "Yes" on on the
Selective Service Box, and the Department of Education will furnish Selective
Service with the information to register the man.
AT THEIR HIGH SCHOOL
More than half the high schools in the Nation have a staff member or teacher
appointed as a Selective Service Registrar. These individuals help register male high
school students.
