Are you ready to run with the Huskies? We're here to help.

Transfer Students

Apply to Tech as a transfer student if you have taken at least one college course following high school graduation (even if you did not complete the course). Students currently enrolled in an early/middle college program are considered first-year students for admission and scholarship purposes.

If you're looking to transfer to a place where students aren't afraid of hard work, Tech is a great option. Huskies embrace hard work and know the trail isn't always easy, but that's the point. You already have ambition. We'll give you the tools, experience, and opportunities to put it to work.

Tech Academics

Explore deeply. Create fearlessly. Graduate ready to lead. Continue your academic journey at Michigan Tech. With small class sizes and personal connections with world-class faculty, a Michigan Tech education is like no other. Explore our academic programs and find a degree that matters.

Majors, Minors, and More

Apply to Michigan Tech

We strive to make the application process for transfer students as easy and seamless as possible.

To get started, fill out our free transfer student application and request to have your official college transcript(s) sent to us—including your official high school transcript if you have not completed an associate's degree or higher at the time of application. Learn more about the application process for transfer students and review our recommended application dates.

Transfer Students

We know that a major part of your decision to attend Michigan Tech is understanding how (and if) your credits will transfer. Transfer credit is granted for appropriate courses completed at another accredited institution with a grade of C or better. Upon acceptance, your official college transcript(s) will be sent to the Registrar's Office for review by Transfer Services staff. Results will be posted to your student account.

If you're not sure how to get started with the transfer process or are looking for more information on transfer credit, housing, scholarships, advising, and more, take a look at our frequently asked questions page. It's made specifically for transfer students like you. We understand the importance of understanding how your credits will transfer before you apply—and we're ready to help. Browse these resources to get started and reach out to transfer@mtu.edu if you have questions.

Transfer Equivalency

Find the institution granting credit for your course(s) and see if and how credit would be awarded at Michigan Tech. All courses are based on historical data, so if you don't see your course or institution, that doesn't necessarily mean you won't earn credit.

Michigan Transfer Agreement

Students who successfully complete the 30-credit-hour Michigan Transfer Agreement (MTA) at a Michigan community college may transfer all 30 credits to satisfy a portion of the general education requirements at Tech.

Cost and Aid

Earned recognition. Lasting value. A Michigan Tech education is an investment in your future—one backed by exceptional career outcomes, earning potential, and long-term value. We believe achievement should be recognized. That's why Tech awards scholarships to recognize academic achievement, talent, and potential. In addition, nearly 90 percent of our students receive some form of financial aid—including scholarships, grants, and loans—making an exceptional STEM education even more accessible.
