3. What is PASS? The Postdoctoral Application Support Service(PASS) is a centralized application service of the American Dental Education Association (ADEA). PASS is available for individuals applying to more than 500 participating advanced dental education (postdoctoral) programs. PASS simplifies the application process by providing one standardized format, thereby relieving applicants of the need to complete multiple applications. Advanced dental education programs benefit by receiving uniform information on all applicants. PASS serves only as an information clearinghouse and does not influence the advanced dental education programs’ appraisal or selection of applicants. Each program has the right to request supplemental information from applicants.
