  • Answer the following short answer questions. Your responses to these questions are required and will help the program determine your motivation to participate in PASS.

  • Certification

  • The information submitted on this application is true and correct, and that all documentation is accurate. I authorize the release of my information and academic records to the Program for Academic Support Services (PASS) to determine my eligibility for the program and for statistical reporting purposes. I understand that the goal of PASS is to increase the retention, graduation, and transfer rates of program participants; therefore, if admitted into the program, I will actively participate in PASS until I complete my educational goal at PCC.
