Connect with an academic adviser

Every student has an academic adviser. Academic advisers are your best resource to help you establish your academic goals, evaluate your transfer credits, plan your courses, find internships, and connect with faculty to get involved in research.

If you are not able to visit campus prior to enrolling, you should contact the advising center in your academic college to inquire about arranging an advising appointment, reviewing transferable coursework, and scheduling your Penn State courses through your LionPath student services center.
