Selective Service

Pursuant to Ohio Law, House Bill 845, all Ohio resident male students between the ages of 18 and 26 not registered with Selective Service must file a statement of Selective Service registration. If you have not already registered with Selective Service, you will be contacted regarding your non-compliant status. Failure to comply will result in the assessment of nonresident tuition fees to your account and the cancellation of all state based financial aid. If you have further questions, please email ohioresidency@kent.edu.  

You can find information on who is required to register as well as register on the Selective Service System website at www.sss.gov.

If you have received notification that you are not in compliance with this regulation, please complete the "Statement of Selective Service Registration Compliance" form. If you have further questions, please email ohioresidency@kent.edu.  

PLEASE ATTACH A COPY OF THE OFFICIAL REGISTRATION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FORM FROM SELECTIVE SERVICE THAT SHOWS THE REGISTRATION NUMBER AND THE DATE OF REGISTRATION (LAST ACTION DATE) TO THE STATEMENT OF SELETIVE SERVICE REGISTRATION COMPLIANCE FORM.  You may also email a copy of the Registration Acknowledgement form to ohioresidency@kent.edu.

RETROACTIVE CONSIDERATION IS NOT PERMITTED

Please note that we are unable to retroactively change the selective service compliance status for previous terms, in cases where a student is non-compliant and did not submit the verification of registration during those terms.
