Department of Applied Linguistics

Meet with an Advisor

Getting started

All PSU students have two advisors. First, you will meet with a university-level Pathway advisor and then meet with a departmental faculty advisor. 

Advising for BA/Minor in Applied Linguistics and TESL Certificate

  1. Meet with an LCM Pathway Advisor
    • Students interested in the BA/Minor in Applied Linguistics and TESL Certificate programs should meet with a Language, Culture, and Meaning pathway advisor.
    • LCM pathway advisors can answer questions about university general education and degree requirements, double-dipping course requirements for majors/minors/certificates, academic standing and petitions, referrals to campus services, veteran's certification, and a variety of other prospective student and transfer issues.
    • To make an appointment with an advisor, follow the directions on their website or email lcmadvising@pdx.edu. Students in the pathway are assigned to an advisor based on the last 2 digits of their PSU ID number.
  2. Meet with an Applied Linguistics Faculty Advisor
    • All students who intend to do the major, minor, or certificate must meet with an advisor after meeting with a university pathway advisor. A faculty advisor will assist with course planning.
    • To make an appointment with a faculty advisor, email ling.advising@pdx.edu or book an appointment via the LING Advisor Appointment Calendar. The department also offers drop-in advising opportunities from 2-4 PM in UCB 335G. Please email for upcoming drop-in dates.
