Undergraduate Advising

Welcome to the College of the Arts Advising site! Undergraduate advising in the College of the Arts at PSU is an important resource to assist you with attaining your degree. Our advisors are here to help you navigate the PSU system, degree requirements, answer any questions, and address any concerns that you may have. PSU has a wide variety of resources available to students and our advisors can help. If you are not sure where to find a resource on campus, just ask. We are happy to point you in the right direction.

Drop-In Advising is available for current students (including co-admits) and prospective students for quick questions only. The maximum drop-in time is 15 minutes. The Drop-In schedule is posted below. Times are subject to change and all changes will be posted.

Please see your assigned Advisor. If you do not have an assigned Advisor, please contact either Jessica or Marie to find out the name of your assigned Advisor. Once you have seen an Advisor, you will need to stay with that Advisor until you enter the upper division part of your program. However, we still encourage you to meet with College Advisor at least once a year to review your overall degree requirements.

APPOINTMENTS - Appointments are available for current PSU students and new post-baccalaureate students. New undergraduate students must first complete a PSU Orientation program which includes an advising session. Students may schedule 30 minute appointments for academic planning; DARS issues, transfer credit questions or other in-depth questions relating to their academic programs. 

For appointments please send an email to either College of the Arts Advisor. Please include your first and last names, your PSU ID number, the type of degree you are seeking (BA, BS, BFA, or BM), and your major.
