If I am a dual citizen, should I note both citizenships on my application?

Students should disclose all countries where they hold citizenship or residency status. This is important information to have so that the selection committee has a better understanding of the student's background. It is important to provide full disclosure because:\ a) The university tracks this information for records purposes, and\ b) Citizenship or residency status will impact the type of financial aid a student may qualify for and if a student needs a visa to attend Penn.
