Transfer Advising

The University has available a list of pre-approved courses from Michigan community colleges that have agreements with WMU. A transfer audit will be done on your records upon admission to the University. Some courses will have the direct equivalent course noted on your transfer audit slip. Other courses will have a notation "Department Credit". See the specific department to determine which course, if any, you have been given credit for. We make every attempt to match the transfer courses with those at WMU. However, due to the wide variety of courses available at colleges and universities across the nation not every course has a direct equivalent. If you have any questions about the transferability of a course please make an appointment to see an advisor and bring whatever information you can find about the course with you. (i.e. a course syllabus or catalog description)

Transferring:

For courses which fulfill the general education proficiency, distribution areas and LEC core, please see the new interactive Transfer Credit Web site.

To see how any Michigan community college course transfers to WMU, please see https://bssp3.cc.wmich.edu/PLS/BPROD/WSHATCE.P_TCEMain. Transfer credits for Michigan community colleges may also be checked by curriculum, major and minor advisors.

Transfer credit for courses from Michigan 4-year Colleges or out-of-state institutions must first be checked by the credit evaluators in the Admissions Office.

Applicability of any coursework which does not receive exact numerical equivalency to WMU courses must be approved for use in any major, minor, or LEC/General Education requirement by the appropriate advisor.

See Important Points to remember for details on the limits for course transfer.
