How do I declare my major?
The Update Academics function in LionPATH is used to declare or change your major. A tutorial on Update Academics is available at https://lionpathsupport.psu.edu/student-help/
You need to meet all entrance-to-major (ETM) requirements in order to declare your major. ETM requirements for students admitted to Penn State Spring 2018 or earlier can be found at https://advising.psu.edu/entrance-major-requirements-college-earth-and-mineral-sciences; requirements for students admitted to Penn State Summer 2018 or later are located on the page for the major in the University Bulletin (https://bulletins.psu.edu/programs/#filter=.filter_22). If you have questions about the ETM requirements for your major, see your EME adviser.
How do I add or remove a minor?

How do I run a degree audit or a what-if report?
Degree audits and what-if reports are run through LionPATH. The link below is a tutorial on how to run each report. If you are still in pre-major status, you would need to run a what-if report. You can also use a what-if report if you are thinking about switching to a different major or declaring a minor to see how the classes you have already taken would count toward that. If you have declared the major that you plan to do, you would run a degree audit. LionPATH refers to a degree audit as academic requirements report.
