public policy and institutional planning requires research
and information sharing, and this is the mission of the
Association's Research Center. Established in 1991, the
Research Center serves as a clearinghouse for data and a
resource for information and assistance to the member institutions.
Studies conducted by our research team address emerging
issues in higher education and/or highlight the performance
and contributions of Pennsylvania's private colleges and
universities. For more information on the Research Center
