Students enrolled in and taking courses at NMU from Autumn 2017 onwards must meet certain general training and specific degree requirements. The University Bulletin explains the guidelines and the various sections of these requirements. Transfer students from Michigan who have completed the MTA will meet their general training requirements. You may still need to meet the completion requirements. If you`re considering moving to Northern Michigan University, you should also consider schools: you can use the NMU course equivalency database to match individual transfer courses with the current list of general education courses and graduation requirements. The link below will take you to the list of general education courses of the Academic and Career Counselling Centre (ACAC). The school had 801 students. Therefore, the transfer acceptance rate for Northern Michigan University is 53.58%. Transfer students must complete at least eight credits in each major and at least four credits in each minor. You will need a cumulative NMU GPA minimum of 2.00 to be eligible for a degree. In addition, they must meet the minimum requirements for academic success and surrogacy set by their academic departments.
* If the number of credits you will be transferred exceeds the number of credits required to obtain your NMU degree, please contact the Financial Aid Office to discuss the potential implications for your scholarship and/or financial support. Students who move from a Michigan community college to Northern Michigan University whose met Michigan transfer agreement is indicated on their transcript will be deemed to have met the requirements of the NMU General Education Program. Students are further expected to meet all other degree requirements, including degree requirements (world cultures, math proficiency, written proficiency, and laboratory) and all courses listed as “Other Required Courses” which may also be general education courses. Transfer students who do not complete the entire block of study required by the MTA will receive credit for the courses they take based on an individual assessment and fixed transfer equivalencies. Admission decisions are made on the basis of official documents. Applicants must request that official transcripts from each high school and college/college/business school attended be sent directly to the NMU Admissions Office. Students who have purchased a GED must have an official results report sent from the test center to NMU. The Michigan transfer agreement is a great option for many students who are considering moving from a Michigan community college to a Michigan university.
However, the MTA track may not be best suited for all majors or programs depending on the order of the course/program and/or courses required. Students are encouraged to work with an academic advisor from their community college and an NMU admissions counselor to get the best advice on planning transfer courses. You may be eligible for automatic merit scholarships, whether you are a student in the state or outside the state. NMU offers a variety of transfer scholarships for admitted students enrolled on the NMU campus. If you are a veteran or depend on a veteran, you may also be eligible for government tuition. Please visit our Financial Aid Office page to learn more about transfer scholarships and tuition fees. Northern Michigan University supports articulation agreements with local and regional community and technical colleges. An articulation agreement is an officially approved agreement that establishes courses between two schools to meet graduation requirements.
They are designed to facilitate a smooth transition for students transitioning from a community college to Northern Michigan University. We currently have articulation agreements with Bay de Noc Community College, Fox Valley Technical College, Gogebic Community College, North Central Technical College, Northeast Wisconsin Technical College and Oakton Community College, as well as other agreements under development. Issuance of Transfer Loans – Within a few weeks of admission to the NMU, transfer applicants will receive an assessment of their submitted transcripts listing their transfer loans. Students who transfer two-year college loans can transfer a maximum of 90 semester credit hours and 4 additional semester credit hours of physical education. In situations where more than 90 semester credit hours are completed at the two-year college level, the most appropriate courses are transferred to the major planned by the student. There is no maximum credit limit for four-year colleges or universities.* This indicates how difficult it is to transfer to Northern Michigan University. You can use the free calculator below to predict your chances of acceptance. You can choose from a variety of accommodation options at NMU. On- and off-campus accommodation is available for transfer students.
Many transfer students choose to live on campus all their time at NMU and enjoy the convenience in terms of cost, location and easy connection with friends and the campus community. For more information, please visit our NMU Housing and Residence Life page. * If you don`t see a college or course listed, it just means we haven`t evaluated it yet. NMU automatically evaluates all courses on the transcripts of admitted students. Our database is regularly updated as new courses are evaluated and added. Contact us if you need help finding a course with transfer@nmu.edu. If you attended another college or university after graduating from high school, you are considered a transfer student. If you enrolled at the college level for less than 12 hours of semester classes (or 18 quarters of an hour) after graduating from high school, your admission is based on high school and college academic records (college transcripts, high school transcripts).
College-level credits earned during high school are eligible for transfer credits, however, grades from these courses do not count towards the cumulative transfer average we use in our admission decision or when awarding transfer scholarships. No transfer credit is granted for remedial courses or for courses at religious colleges or universities that are pedagogical in nature. Transfer credits are not granted for the departmental prepress unless a grade is assigned and the course is included in the semester hours. The Admissions Office considers anyone who has attempted college courses after graduating from high school as a transfer student for admission. If all college credits are earned before high school, you are considered a first-year student. More information about early college loans can be found here. The NMU applies the courses that have been transferred under the MACRAO agreement in accordance with the guidelines established by its faculty. The courses used to fulfill the MACRAO transfer agreement do not apply to NMU`s liberal degree programs if: I understand – the transfer from colleges can be confusing, time-consuming, and overwhelming. You are not alone. In fact, more than 700,000 students transfer the college each year. If you have taken courses at a non-U.S./non-Canadian* institution at the time of applying to NMU, you will also need to submit your additional documents for evaluation at the end of your current studies.
Additional fees may be charged to the Agency for this. Upon receipt of the final report, the NMU will review your admission status to ensure that you meet the admission requirements. *A credit assessment may be requested for records from certain Canadian institutions. For some affiliated or compliant international schools in the United States, assessments may be cancelled. . . .
