Prepare for Your Undergraduate College Experience
While you're in high school, we recommend that you complete as many years of science and mathematics as possible. For math, we recommend students take up to pre-calculus and calculus. In science, physics and chemistry are great preparatory classes for the required college physics and chemistry courses you'll take as a Michigan Tech engineering student during your first year of study.
If you plan on taking college courses and AP exams while in high school, please contact the advising office of your intended major at Michigan Tech. Our advisors can help you map out a plan to maximize how your credits transfer into your chosen degree program. A list of COE advisors is available on the advisor directory page.
If you're an accepted student, please make sure to send your AP exam results, transcripts—including any dual enrollment credits—and SAT or ACT scores to Michigan Tech.
Your first semester's schedule will be based on the credits you've earned. Review Michigan Tech's Advanced Placement Guide to determine AP score requirements. To learn how credits completed at Michigan community colleges may transfer to Michigan Tech, review our Michigan Transfer Agreement page.
