Additionally, no Dual Citizens are being accepted at this time. If you hold another citizenship in addition to that of the United States, you will need to provide the following: a statement expressing your willingness to renounce your (dual) citizenship; and be willing to return your foreign passport to the embassy, providing a receipt or you may destroy the passport in the presence of a security official.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0a206a;\">The ONR Summer Faculty Research Program is open to United States citizens and legal permanent residents. Some restrictions may apply to permanent residents regarding eligibility for a Department of Defense (DoD) security clearance. It is anticipated that basic research undertaken by the participants will usually be unclassified, in which case the participants will only need to be processed for a Facility Access Determination (FAD) if their sponsor verifies their need to work outside of normal duty hours. For some laboratories, a DoD security clearance at &#8220;Secret&#8221; level may be required to gain access to research facilities, in which case participation in the program is contingent upon the participants obtaining the proper clearance. Security clearance and access requirements vary from laboratory to laboratory.
