NEW MSU Transfer Credit Policy – Transfer Credit Allowed AFTER 56 Credits (Junior Standing)
“Students may transfer a maximum of 60 credits from two-year institutions. Those credits may be earned and transferred into MSU at any time in the student’s degree. No more than 10 of the last 30 total credits toward a degree may be transferred without approval by the Associate Provost for Undergraduate Education. Only grades of 2.0 and above are eligible for transfer credit.”
- This new transfer policy allows students to repeat classes at a community college (even after 56 credits)! Remember, the grade does not transfer, just the credit. The repeat transfer credit will remove the original grade.
“Starting summer 2022, a new course repeat policy will take effect that will apply to all prior semesters’ courses. This will allow undergraduate students to repeat any class up to twice (for a total of three attempts), regardless of the grade they earned in their previous attempt, and with a 20-credit limit on repeat credits.”
SUMMER ENROLLMENT @ ANOTHER INSTITUTION (transfer.msu.edu)
- Transfer.msu.eduwill tell you an equivalent course
- Take a screen shot for your records
2. You need to apply as a “Guest Student”:
- For Lansing Community College
- MSU students who wish to take courses at LCC do not need to fill out the guest application and need to go directly to the LCC application
- For other Michigan community colleges and 4-year universities
- Generate your Michigan Uniform Undergraduate Guest Application
- This one generates the right signatures automatically
- I cannot sign this form, I don’t have the power
- For non-Michigan institutions
- Please refer to the institution’s specific website for any necessary guest application forms
- Once you take the class you transfer the credit back by sending your transcript from the other institution back to MSU
- You can send the transcript electronically to Admis@msu.edu or via Physical Address and Parchment Service
