Meet the World Campus Academic Advisers
Your academic adviser is not only a valuable support professional and educator in your Penn State network, but also an expert in the requirements for your chosen program. From degree requirements and course planning to policies, procedures, and support resources, your academic adviser can help you navigate numerous aspects of both Penn State and your program.
To get the most out of the support your academic adviser can offer, get to know them and let them get to know you. This relationship is especially important during your first semester as a new Penn State student—if you have a question and aren't sure where to start, you can always reach out to your academic adviser!
Watch the following video to learn (from advisers!) about the ways that advisers can support you throughout your time at Penn State.
