MICHIGAN TRANSFER AGREEMENT (MTA) GUIDELINESMichigan Transfer Agreement • January 31st, 2022
Originally signed in 1972, the Michigan Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (MACRAO) Transfer Agreement has been used successfully by many students to transfer their general education courses from community colleges to participating four year institutions. In 2012, the Michigan Legislature included language in the community college appropriations bill calling for improvement in the transferability of college courses between Michigan colleges and universities by revising the MACRAO Transfer Agreement. The Michigan Transfer Agreement (MTA) has been created in an effort to increase the transferability of lower level general education courses across all of Michigan’s public institutions.
