Academic Advising Overview

Academic Advising will be working remotely.

While Penn State continues to monitor the global outbreak of the coronavirus closely, the Academic Advising office will continue to provide all services remotely through the Fall semester. You can continue to call 570-963-2686 or email [email protected]. We are working hard to assist you in any way possible!

With commitment and responsibility, we will provide excellence in academic advising to a diverse student community, encouraging exploration and supporting self-regulation and autonomy. 

We will assist all Penn State Scranton students in navigating the Penn State advising system, identifying appropriate major and minor goals, and providing access to the tools, resources, and support to assist students in meeting those goals.

Undecided on a major?

The Division of Undergraduate Studies is here to help students who want to explore the University's academic offerings before deciding on a field of study or need help transferring from one college or major to another.

New Student Orientation (NSO)

This required program introduces students to what it means to be part of the Penn State community, introduces students to valuable resources that they will use throughout their time at Penn State, and helps students begin planning their academic careers through advising and course scheduling.
