Have you already decided on a major? If so, you may be able to enter that major now. You can declare many Penn State majors as soon as you have earned a 2.00 GPA and completed at least 29.1 credits. This can be done through the "Update Academics" function in LionPATH. To see what the entrance-to-major requirements are for your intended major, visit the "How to Get In" section of the program page for that major in the Bulletin. As soon as you meet the entrance criteria, you can go on to Update Academics in LionPATH to officially declare your major.
Planning on a major with enrollment controls? Make sure you take a close look at the credit window, GPA requirements, and course requirements. And if you haven’t spoken with your assigned adviser yet about potential entrance-to-major requirements, now would be a great time in the semester to do so.
