DROP IN ADVISING

During the first week of the semester (Monday Aug 25 - Friday Aug 29) we will be happy to meet with students on a walk-in basis. Please come to our offices in 484 Business for any quick questions about your Spring 2026 application status, IB Minor questions or stop by to say hi and tell us how your recent study abroad experience went!

**********

Our office offers both in-person and virtual advising appointments. BA and DUS students planning Smeal majors may schedule an online appointment via Starfish and then choose whether to meet with us in the Business Building or using Zoom. For instructions and access to Zoom  https://cmm.psu.edu/zoom/ 

BA and DUS students planning a Smeal College of Business major are welcome to meet with a Strickler International Programs Coordinator at any point in the Study Abroad process. If you have already met with one of our Coordinators, please continue to meet with the same person. Typical appointments are scheduled for thirty minutes. If you feel that you will need a longer time or you are going to bring a friend, please schedule two appointments in a row.
