My understanding is he was selected in the draft, and notified of such selection, and then lied to the draft board and left the country. Im of course no expert on law as it relates, but it seems illegal on the face of it. This has plenty of sources for the info:

Clinton's Draft Avoidance
Actually, I had forgotten about that. Illegal, though? Maybe not on the up and up but I don't believe there was anything criminal in it. BTW, you say he "left the country" like that was a bad thing. If I had gotten a Rhodes Scholarship when I was in school, I'd have left the country, too.
