2+2 Articulation Agreements
The Michigan Transfer Agreement
For students that transfer to UM-Dearborn, the MTA will be applied toward the Dearborn Discovery Core (general education requirements) and fulfill the following: Humanities and Arts (6 credits), Natural Sciences (7 credits), Social & Behavioral Sciences (6 credits), Quantitative Thinking & Problem Solving (3 credits), Written and Oral Communication (6 credits). The additional two credits will be applied toward a student’s elective requirements.
Students should check with their community college to determine which courses can be used to fulfill the MTA categories and learn the details for obtaining an MTA endorsement on their transcript. Students transferring to UM-Dearborn must have the Michigan Transfer Agreement Satisfied designation posted on their transcript to take advantage of the MTA.
Course Transfer System
You can utilize UM-Dearborn's Course Transfer System to review courses that have been evaluated for transferability. Courses listed in the CTS, but not on the guides, can generally be used to fulfill elective credit requirements.

Individuals desiring credit from CLEP examinations at the University must provide an official College Board CLEP score report for all exams taken PRIOR to enrollment at the university.
