Transfer to a four-year university with confidence
If your goal is to earn a bachelor's degree, our goal is to make your transfer path barrier-free!
We have agreements with most public and private four-year colleges and universities, ensuring the credits you earn here will transfer.
Planning your transfer
Follow these simple steps to transfer with ease:
- Enroll in an associate's degree program at Macomb
