[Kristie Luke]

Hi Jon,

This is the information we request on Southeastern's application:


Are you a U.S. Citizen?   * Yes    *No, Country of Citizenship:                                                     Additional forms are required for international student (F-1) admission.

Are you a permanent resident of Oklahoma? (To be considered for "In-State" status, you/your parents must have lived in Oklahoma for the last 12 months for non-education reasons.)
* Yes, Oklahoma Resident, List COUNTY:
              How long have you lived in Oklahoma?
* No, Out-Of-State Resident, List STATE:
* Resident Alien, List Alien Registration #:                                                                                         (Attach front and back copy of card.)

Place of Birth:
                                    City                                              State                                 Country

If they indicate that they were born outside of the U.S., we request additional documentation prior to admission.    Naturalization/citizenship paperwork, permanent resident cards, etc.

Subject: [Oacrao-l] Citizenship Questions on Application for Admission

Colleagues,

I am looking to establish the general practice for students to indicate citizenship on applications for admission. These are Admission questions only and are not related to in-state residency decisions.

Question 1: How specific are your citizenship and/or country of birth questions on your application for admission. Do you simply ask a "Yes/No" in regards to citizenship or to you have follow-up questions?
Question 2: If students are not citizens what documents and/or information do you require (if any) prior to admission?

Examples:

A: Student indicates that she was born in Japan but is a naturalized citizen.
                Do you require additional documentation for admission?
B: Student indicates that they are not a citizen of the United States.
                What additional documents do you require?
C: Student is a Lawful Permanent Resident.
                Do you require a copy of the LPR card? Do you apply any future holds.

Thanks in advance.
