Grant Summary

$275,0000 over 24 months to support 12 independent colleges with (1) participating in the statewide general education transfer curriculum known as the Michigan Transfer Agreement and (2) participating in five statewide transfer pathways for art, biology, communications, criminal justice, and psychology. As a result of independent colleges’ participation in these statewide transfer policies, community college transfer students will have assurances about statewide block transfer of credits for up to 30 credits of general education and pre-requisites for the selected majors. This project is co-funded by the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations.
