If you're doing poorly in most or all of your classes, talk to an academic adviser as soon as possible about your options. Withdrawal from the spring semester may be appropriate depending on your circumstances, but it’s a serious decision and should be discussed with family members as well as Student Aid and your adviser. The deadline to withdraw is this Friday, April 28. If you are unable to speak with your adviser, you can take advantage of Quick Question Advising hours.
DUS has an ongoing goal to ensure that all DUS students have access to quality academic advising. To enhance and strengthen how we support you through academic advising, we invite you to complete a brief survey. We value your thoughts and will use the information gathered to carefully assess and further develop our approach to supporting students. Your voice matters, so please take a few moments to complete the survey. Thank you.
Students who choose a special place to study tend to earn higher grades. You can find many great places to carve out a spot in the many Penn State Libraries!
