Michigan Transfer Agreement

Michigan Transfer Agreement

The Michigan Transfer Agreement (MTA) is a partnership between Michigan’s colleges and universities that allows students to complete core college courses at one institution and transfer those credits to other partner institutions to be applied to the core requirements.

To be eligible to receive the “MTA-Satisfied” designation on the LSSU academic transcript, students must:

  • Complete LSSU’s bachelor degree General Education Core Requirements with a minimum of a C or higher in each course.  If students transfer coursework to LSSU, any coursework used toward LSSU’s General Education Core Requirements will be required to have a minimum grade of a C or higher.
  • Complete at least one credit bearing course at LSSU.
  • Submit the completed LSSU MTA Application Form.

Coursework in areas of prior learning are not applicable to the MTA at this time (e.g.,International Baccalaureate-IB, College-Level Examination Program-CLEP, DANTES Subject Standardized Test-DSST, etc.).

Students requesting and earning this designation, will have it applied to their academic transcript at the completion of the academic semester.

Transfer Course Equivalency Tool

Transfer Course Equivalency Tool

The Transfer Equivalency Tool allows students to check how courses from the listed schools will transfer to LSSU. Courses listed from other schools may not currently be offered at those schools.

This is only a tool – please go to the Registrar’s Office for final confirmation of how your course will transfer to LSSU.

To receive transfer credit at LSSU, a grade of “C-” or higher must be earned, and the official transcript from the other school must be sent directly to LSSU.
