Visas

You may be required to obtain one or more visas before traveling abroad.  If a visa is required, please obtain it from the appropriate embassy or nearest foreign consular representative before proceeding abroad.  It is important to allow sufficient time for processing your visa application, especially if you are applying by mail.  If you are a U.S. citizen, to see if the country you are traveling to has such visa requirements, please visit the U.S. Department of State website.

We also strongly urge all U.S. citizens to register with the U.S. embassy or consulate in the country or countries where you are traveling as part of your grant or fellowship. Learn more and register at the U.S. Department of State’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program website. Non-U.S. citizens should register with the embassy or consulate of their own country.
