Spring semester is approaching quickly and with a Presidential Election and COVID-19 still at the forefront of our minds, one might have forgotten that registration is only days away from beginning.

So, what’s your first step? First, you will want to find out when you’re enrolling. You can do this by either talking to your advisor or going to LionPATH, clicking on the enrollment dates tab, and selecting Spring Semester 2021.

It is important to note that many things can change your actual enrollment date. For example, if you’re an athlete or in any other recognized organization, you may be eligible for priority enrollment. The same goes for Honors students and those who may be close to graduating.

After seeing all of the enrollment dates you can head over to Penn State Abington’s page to get a better idea of what your specific registration date is.  A good starting point to finding your enrollment date is to look at how many credits you have in total as of the end of the Fall 2020 semester and matching it to the registration timetable.

After finding all of your information, it is a good idea to then make an appointment with your advisor. You want to do this quickly, as spots tend to fill up fast as registration approaches. Your advisor can be found through Starfish, which you can also use to make an appointment. After making an appointment your advisor will help you build the best schedule.

A lot is going on right now, but let’s all start the Spring Semester with great classes and schedules we’re confident in.
