If i don't apply for financial aid, am i disregarded if there was a draft?

i'm looking at applying on FAFSA and saw these requirements:

* Be a citizen or eligible noncitizen of the United States with a valid Social Security Number;
* Have a high school diploma or a General Education Development (GED) certificate or pass an approved "ability to benefit" test;
* Enroll in an eligible program as a regular student seeking a degree or certificate;
* Register (or have registered) for Selective Service, if you are a male between the ages of 18-25; and
* Have a result of Eligible or Partially Eligible on the Drug Conviction question (Question 31).

Note: answering 'No' to this question (having been convicted of possessing or selling illegal drugs) does not mean your status will never change in the case of subsequent convictions. If your status changes, please notify the financial aid administrator at your school.

I'm looking at the fourth one. If i don't apply for FAFSA, meaning i don't apply for Selective Service, does that mean i'm disregarded for a military draft if one was made?
 
If you're a male US citizen from 18-26, you're required by law to register regardless of whether you even go to school or not.
 
Uh, no. It just means you have to register to be eligible. It says nothing at all about your status of being drafted.

That's like asking if I don't have the $20 to go see a movie with my girlfriend, will I never receive a job which pays me money. Perhaps a more intelligent question would have been : If I don't register for the Selective Service, will I get drafted? The answer to that is 'no, but prepare to be fined and/or jailed.'

Registering for the Selective Service is an obligation decreed by law. Noone is going to come to your door and kill you if you don't, but if military conscription is reintroduced you will stil be required to serve your time even though you are trying to hide and let others die for you.

In other words, you are a chckenshit, cowardly, spineless potential user of the system who doesn't want to take his chances along with everyone else.

People like you give Bubba a woodie cause he knows he's gonna have lottsa butt sex with your kind while you are serving time.
 
i was supposed to register in 1999 and failed to register. To this date i haven't been fined or arrested. I do not believe i am the only one and would say that majority of those that don't qualify for financial aid probably do not register but that is just my personal guess
 
HappyPuppy you say those people that don't register are cowards etc. I would gladly volunteer for army/marines/air force if this country was in eminet thread of being attacked by forein army or if were under attack. If that would to happen to one would need to draft me as i would volunteer to join to help defend this country. As it stands we are not under any attack and no country currently is threatening to attack us.

Oh, aren't you the proud one to be shirking your duty to your country. I hope you don't break your arm patting yourself on the back.

I don't think you little chickenshit, cocksucking little pimple poppers understand, if the time comes when the country needs cannon fodder it won't matter if you registered or not. The government already knows everyting about you and how to pick you up when they desire to.

Heh, heh, I remember the fatasses who were conscripted during VN. They thought their obesity was going to get them out of serving their country. Wrong! They just got recycled through the fat basic training over and over until they were in shape and then they were handed an M16 and sent off to die in the Mekong Delta.

I willl piss on your grave.

Why, you little pipsqueak, you are not the deciding factor in what wars we fight. It is not up to the individual to obey the laws he chooses to, he obeys all of them.

Our elected government decides when we go to war and you don't. Do you understand that? Maybe they know something you don't, or maybe they're wrong. You still go. If you don't like the odds then leave the country. Nobody will miss your selfserving pathetic ass.

i plan on leaving the country the day they call the draft. I am ready to go to France unless draft is called because we are being invaded. Regarding that they can find me regarless if i register or not, i am aware of that but declaring that you are gay will probably get me out of draft as it stands now gays can't serve

I have my card sitting right here with me. I intend to fill it out. As far as I'm concerned, though, it's a waste of their paperwork - if they ever see fit to reopen the draft, I'll be first in the "volunteers" line. Much more likely to live through it that way, since you get your choice of MSO (if you have the skills) and you also get more than a crash-course in warfare. That is, if I still live here. The culture of stupid here clashes with me in such a way that it drives me up the wall a little too often for my tastes.
 
It's like cheating on your taxes.

It's against the law to do it or not register but while everyone may not get caught, those that do often find that dropping the soap from then on to be a hazard to one's life 😀

You DO know that not only is the possibility of a draft next to nothing due to the fact that it's political suicide, right?

And that going to war is not a death sentence by any stretch of the imagination? More people are killed in some cities over the course of a year than have been killed in the entire nation of Iraq in the past year.
