The Pennsylvania Application For Admission (PAA) is an online form and application process for students to apply for admission to a Pennsylvania college or university. This application is used by the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (Passé) and participating private institutions to process and review student admissions to their respective institutions. The PAA consists of two parts: the core application, and the supplemental application. The core application includes basic information such as the student’s name, address, contact information, social security number, family information, academic history, and test scores. This part of the application is used to determine the student’s eligibility for admission, and is reviewed by admissions counselors. The supplemental application is used to provide additional information about the student’s academic background, extracurricular activities, and other factors that may be relevant to the admissions process. This part of the application is used to determine the student’s academic qualifications and personal qualities. There are two types of Pennsylvania Application For Admission: the Pennsylvania Resident Application, and the Non-Resident Application. The Pennsylvania Resident Application is used by students who are current Pennsylvania residents. The Non-Resident Application is used by students who are not current Pennsylvania residents.
