M. RETURN TO VIETNAM<br />

VEF is a U.S. Federal Government agency. By accepting this grant from VEF, you agree to obtain a J-1 visa with a two-year<br />

home residency requirement, which mandates that you return to <strong>Vietnam</strong> upon completion of your grant period in the United<br />

States. Failure to do so will be seen as noncompliance with the Visiting Scholar Grant terms and conditions and with your J-1<br />

visa requirements and could result in legal action by the U.S. Government. This legal action could negatively impact your<br />

ability to travel to the United States in the future.<br />

agreement by, you. Conditions may include your late arrival or early departure, your extended travel outside of the United<br />

States; changes in financial resources available to you from your host institution in the United States; your failure to maintain<br />

satisfactory progress on your approved program; your failure to maintain valid J-1 status; or any other legal matters that<br />

might affect VEF or you, including changes to U.S. Federal Government regulations. You must report to VEF in writing<br />

O. RESPONSIBILITIES<br />

You are responsible for observing satisfactory academic and professional standards and for maintaining a standard of conduct<br />

and integrity, which is in keeping with the spirit and intent of the VEF Visiting Scholar Program and which will contribute<br />

positively to the promotion of mutual understanding between the people of the United States and <strong>Vietnam</strong>. You are expected<br />

to obey all local, state, and federal regulations and all U.S. laws during your stay in the United States. You are also expected<br />

to abide by the rules and regulations of your U.S. host institution. You are expected to check in with your host University's<br />

International Office upon arrival at your host institution and complete any required paper work, if requested. Please note that<br />

failure to abide by any such laws, rules, and regulations can have a direct and adverse impact on your immigration status as<br />

well. You are also responsible to notify VEF immediately if you face any situation that arises in which you are considered in<br />

violation of university, institution, local, state or federal laws and regulations.<br />
