Online Master's Advising Contacts

Even if you do not have an assigned advisor listed in LionPath, you do have a designated team of program advisors to assist you every step of the way! Contact us at smealonline@psu.edu with any questions.

Tips for Advising Appointments

  • Plan to be in front of a computer with internet access during the appointment. Screen-sharing is often part of advising meetings.

  • Don’t wait to schedule your appointment until the last minute. The beginning and end of each semester are a busy time for your advisors and time slots can fill up quickly.

  • You don’t have to wait until you have a problem to meet with your advisor. A general "check-in” to discuss program planning is recommended.
