Members of the Salve Regina community are invited to get their first passport or renew their old one during the Office of International Programs’ passport day, which will be held from noon to 2 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 14 in Drexel Hall.
Those who are interested are encouraged to RSVP to studyabroad@salve.edu, but drop-ins are also welcome. All Salve Regina students who RSVP will be entered into a raffle to have their passport paid for by the Office of International Programs (up to $150).
All required forms will be available during the session, and a representative from the U.S. Postal Service will be on hand to make the process as quick and easy as possible.
Requirements for new passports
- Proof of U.S. citizenship, which includes one of the following: Previously issued, undamaged and fully valid U.S. passport; certified birth certificate issued by the city, county or state; consular report of birth abroad or certification of birth; naturalization certificate; or certificate of citizenship.
