The ACCESS For Education Foundation, like all U.S. companies and individuals, is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). Under this U.S. law, export of certain launch vehicle and payload technologies and technical information to foreign countries is prohibited. For this reason, the ACCESS for Education Foundation has decided to limit participation in the ACCESS Program to U.S. educational institutions.
