Students are able to transfer to Mid or from Mid to other colleges and universities. Mid accepts most course work completed with a C or better from an accredited institution and our Transfer Degrees make transitioning into public or private four-year colleges and universities easy. Transferring is a convenient and economical option for many students. Our Mid Mentors consider what students have already completed and what courses they should take at Mid to achieve their goals.
Many Michigan four-year colleges and universities are part of the Michigan Transfer Agreement. The Agreement requires the completion of 30 credit hours of course work in general education areas. If a student has successfully completed the appropriate coursework, that student's transcript is marked MTA Satisfied. Participating four-year colleges and universities accept the transcript notation as completion of the 30 credits towards general education requirements. Not all four-year colleges and universities participate in MTA. Students intending to transfer should contact their intended transfer institution. The MTA requires that colleges list coursework that is applicable. The following are Mid's Designated MTA courses by MTA area. Each course must be completed with a minimum grade of C.
Credits transferred from other MTA granting institutions that have no direct equivalent to the above, but are granted departmental elective credit in one of the above areas, are also eligible for application towards an MTA Endorsement from Mid.
Mid accepts transfer credit from other accredited institutions. An evaluation is only done from an official transcript. An official transcript bears the appropriate signatures and seals and is sent directly to Mid from the issuing institution, either electronically or in print via postal carrier. Transcripts not sent directly from an issuing institution are considered unofficial and are not evaluated. Credits are transferred for courses with a minimum grade of C or better. Grades from transfer courses are not calculated into the Mid Michigan College cumulative grade point average. Transfer credits are shown on the student’s academic record. A minimum of one-half of the student’s credits toward a program must be taken at Mid to be eligible to graduate from Mid with honors.

Transcript evaluation generally takes one to two weeks after the transcript is received by the Registrar. Students planning to transfer to Mid should have transcripts from other institutions sent to the College well in advance of their planned start date.
