Advising

All students admitted to a major in our department are assigned a faculty adviser.

  • If you do not know your adviser, please check LionPATH or contact us.
  • If you are a freshman or sophomore at a Penn State campus location other than University Park, you will be assigned an adviser at that location.
  • If you transferred to a major in our department, you will be assigned an adviser after your change of major is approved.
