They will then be mailed a registration or selective number. At eighteen and a half years they are mailed a form which they are required to fill out and return. They are subsequently given a classification. ROTC Programs—The College offers Army and Air Force ROTC programs. (See Department of Aerospace Studies, School of Arts, Letters, and Science, for further information.) Reserve Programs—Students may prefer to meet their obligation by joining a reserve or national guard unit. Direct contact should be made with the unit in which the student is interested. College Deferment—A student may be deferred under a II-S classification if he is pursuing a full-time course of instruction and makes proportional progress toward his degree each year. If a student is interested in a college deferment, he should contact his draft board within five days after his eighteenth birthday, and arrange to supply evidence of his registration at the College to the board. Extending one's education before he performs his military duty not only improves his capacity to serve his country, but also increases his chances for advancement during his service time.
