Congratulations, you're a true blue-and-white Penn Stater. Thank you for joining the Penn State Mont Alto campus community. Whether you’re completing your degree at Mont Alto or getting your start here as part of Penn State’s 2+2 program, we’re here to support you and help you achieve your academic goals.
And, it all starts with New Student Orientation. During NSO, you’ll meet with students, faculty, and staff, learn more about campus resources, schedule courses for your first semester, and become familiar with campus (that’ll help on the first day of classes). All new Penn State students must complete NSO before registering for courses.
- On-Campus New Student Orientation experience*
- Virtual Advising: Students meet 1-on-1 via Zoom for one hour to discuss course placements, intended major, first-semester planning, and course registration
For specific dates on when NSO is being held, please visit https://orientation.psu.edu/ and login into your NSO task list.
To help students complete the orientation steps on time, an NSO Task list will be available for each student. You will receive a notification sent to the email address provided on your admissions application when you have access. There will also be an access link located on this webpage. You will use your Penn State account (e.g., abc5123) to access this Task list.
*Reminder to please be working on your NSO Task list items as they become available.
We are looking forward to meeting you!
