Michigan Transfer Agreement (MTA)

Walsh College participates in the MTA which allows you to satisfy the minimum 30 semester credit hour liberal arts requirement at a Michigan community college. As an MTA student, you must complete intermediate algebra (or a higher level mathematics course) to qualify for admission to Walsh College. If you’re a student from a participating Michigan public community college, you must present a transcript bearing the “MTA Satisfied” designation.

To fulfill the Michigan Transfer Agreement, you must successfully complete at least 30 credits with a “C” (2.000 GPA) in each course in the following categories;

• One course in English Composition and a second course in English Composition or Communications.
• One course in Mathematics—we recommend intermediate algebra or a higher level mathematics course/placement or a statistics course equivalent to QM 202.
• Two courses in Social Sciences from two disciplines—we recommend an economics course equivalent to ECN 201 or ECN 202.
• Two courses in Humanities and Fine Arts from two disciplines excluding studio and performance classes.
• Two courses in Natural Sciences including one with laboratory experience from two disciplines.
