Course Scheduling via LionPATH

Registration Guidelines

Penn State requires graduate students to be continually enrolled while working towards their degree. This means students will need to register for classes every fall and spring. Students will only register for classes in the summer when needed (Please see Summer Registration Guidelines for more information).

All students will register using the student portal in LionPATH. Registration opens at different times depending on student status.
