Press Credentials
Penn State is a member of the Big Ten Conference and all press box and game day policies will conform to Big Ten guidelines.
Football
Admittance to the Beaver Stadium press box is limited to accredited working media members only. Credential requests must be made on www.GoPSUsports.com/media. Please request credentials at least three weeks in advance of the game to permit sufficient time for mailing.
Members of the media must make their own arrangements for telephones, although the Athletics Communications Office does provide a limited number of first-come, first-served telephones on Level 3 of the press box.
Men's Basketball
Working media members only will be issued press credentials for games in the Bryce Jordan Center. Access to media row, the media work room and pre-game media meals is limited to credentialed media only.
Credential requests must be made to Brian Siegrist in writing on appropriate letterhead. Please request credentials at least a week in advance of the game. Media credentials which cannot be mailed will be left at Press Will Call (Media Entrance) located on the event level of the Jordan Center near the back truckway that faces Mount Nittany and the outdoor track.
Women's Basketball
Single game and season press credentials are issued to
accredited members of the working media only. Requests for credentials should be directed to Kristina Petersen, the women's basketball contact. Please submit requests for game credentials on letterhead via fax or email at least one week in advance of each game.

Thereafter, credentials can be picked up at Media Will Call, which is located at the Media/Team entrance, on the south side of the Bryce Jordan Center, near Parking Lot 8.
Wrestling
Beginning with the 2011-12 season, Nittany Lion wrestling will be credentialed separately at Penn State and will no longer use the 'Olympic Sport' credential.

Single dual credentials are also available. If coming to Rec Hall for a single date, please supply the above information plus the date of said dual.
