Who is My Advisor?
Academic Advising
Academic advising is a collaborative educational process in which students and their advisors are partners in meeting the essential learning outcomes that support student success. This partnership requires participation and involvement of both the advisor and the student and spans the student’s whole educational experience.
The School of Business at PSU utilizes professional advisors in delivering advising for students. Professional advisors are available to assist with university general education and degree requirements, assist with academic standing issues and petitions, and provide referrals to various campus services.
Professional advisors are assigned based on the last two digits of a students’ PSU ID number (All are located in SBA 240):
