Community College Students—
Do you want to further your education?
Michigan Tech's "Transfer Transition Program" helps community college students transfer to a four-year institution to earn a baccalaureate degree.
"Transfer Transition Program" offers a seven-week summer program that addresses the opportunities and
challenges for students who want to pursue a bachelor's degree.
"Transfer Transition Program" will allow you to become acquainted with Michigan
Tech. It also provides support for a positive and smooth transition to our campus.
The program includes academic tutoring and comprehensive advising. You will live on the University
campus while you complete an undergraduate internship with a faculty member and graduate
students. This experience strengthens your academic background in your major. You are also able to
enroll in a university-level course.
"Transfer Transition Program" encourages academically and economically disadvantaged
students as well as minority students, Hispanic-American, Native American, and African-American, to continue
their education beyond community college.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics has determined that, over the course of an average career,
an individual with a bachelor's degree will earn $376,000 more than someone with an associate's degree.
Join us. We can help you go places!
Sponsored by State of Michigan’s King-Chavez-Parks Initiative, the intent of this program
is to increase the number of academically or economically disadvantaged students and/or from those who would
otherwise not adequately be represented in the student population, who are seeking careers in
Business,
Computer Science,
Mathematics, Science,
Engineering,
Secondary Education, or
Technology.

"Take a lot of summer clothes and have fun"
"Work hard and take advantage of the connections made with staff, faculty and peers"
"Don't let any details or anything I mean you feel unsure about you better tell somweone as soon as possible don't let it go and think it wil lwork itself out. You only have seven weeks do yourself a favor and be sure about your whole position in the prograsm the entire time"
"Be positive, don't give up because the beginning of the internship can be a little scary but the results are very satisfactory"
"To not be afraid take chances and take advantage of any opportunity"
