Likely not as a Non-US Citizen cannot normally obtain a security clearance, even if they are currently AD enlisted. From the requirements of this degree, it seems like they will be asking for a Tier-5 Security Clearance for you (Top Secret), vice a routine Tier-3 (Secret), hence the crazy vetting of the references and such. Better to spend a couple weeks verifying a students info, than spend the six+ months and thousands of dollars to try for a Tier-5 and have it come back with an unfavorable adjudication.

This is correct. Admission office told me that even Green Card Holders are not even allowed.
Man look at this form that needs to be filled.
