Students who enroll at Macomb Community College intending to transfer and complete a bachelor's degree need to make early decisions concerning an academic major and a transfer destination. Statistics show that students who make these decisions early are more likely to persist to graduation than their undecided counterparts. The transfer resource best equipped to help undecided students to plan their educational future is the Office of Counseling and Academic Advising Services.
Academic decision making starts at the course level. Macomb College submits all new curricular offerings to our educational partners in order to determine how each new course can be used toward completion of a baccalaureate degree. Course equivalency information can be found in a number of locations on the Internet. You can find what you need to know about the transfer value of our courses by accessing the individual college or university website or the website of the Michigan Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (MACRAO) @ www.macrao.org.
Course equivalency data constitute the basis for transfer plans that relate to a specific major at a specific college or university. Plans by major and college may also be found on the college or university website or on the Macomb Community College WebAdvisor site. Another resource for undecided students who would like to research potential majors and transfer institutions is the “Degree Connections” section of the Macomb Community College website.
There are numerous offices and departments within the College that are involved in supporting Macomb’s Transfer Mission. Examples include: The Office of Articulation & Transfer; Counseling and Academic Advising Services; the Enrollment Office; the Macomb University Center and the Financial Aid Office. You can check their portion of the College website for more information on the services each of these areas provide.
