Privacy Act of 1974; Matching Program

This provides notice of the re-establishment of a matching program between the Department of Education (Department or ED) and the Selective Service System (SSS). Under the Solomon Amendment to the Military Selective Service Act Section 12(f), young men who are required under Section 3 of the Military Selective Service Act to be registered with SSS must fulfill the registration requirement in order to be eligible for any form of assistance or benefits provided under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA). This matching program enables ED to prevent improper payments to those applicants who are not eligible under the Military Selective Service Act to receive any form of assistance or benefit provided under title IV of the HEA.
