I'm currently taking classes at Schoolcraft College and thinking about transferring to Michigan State University. Does anyone know which courses will transfer?
Sure thing, each university usually has its own policy when it comes to transferring credits from community colleges. In the case of Michigan State University, they have a transfer MSU tool on their admissions website, which you can use to see how credits at Schoolcraft College (or any other institution, for that matter) would transfer over.
To use this tool, simply select Schoolcraft College as your current/previous institution and it will show you a list of courses at Schoolcraft, and how they would translate to MSU equivalents. This way, you can plan your courses and ensure they align with your intended major at MSU to avoid taking courses that may not transfer or count towards your degree.
Please remember that for certain courses, especially within specific majors, you may need to have attained a certain minimum grade in order for the credits to be eligible for transfer. While the transfer MSU tool provides a general guideline for transferability, final determination of transfer credit acceptance is ultimately made by the Registrar at MSU.
It's also a good idea to get in touch with an academic adviser at MSU or Schoolcraft College for the most personalized and accurate advice. They can help guide you in your course selection and ensure that you're on the right path to successfully transfer credits and fulfill your educational goals.
