At a ceremony in the University Center yesterday, NMC signed “reverse transfer” agreements with seven of our current University Center partners: Central Michigan University, Davenport University, Ferris State University, Grand Valley State University, Michigan State University, Spring Arbor University and Western Michigan University; and also with Northern Michigan University.
The agreements will formalize the process of “reverse” transferring any credits from the four-year university to NMC that complete requirements for an NMC degree or certificate. Students need simply to initiate the process of transferring the credits with their four-year institution.
A benefit of the reverse transfer process is that studies show that students who successfully complete the associate’s degree are more likely to persist and complete a bachelor’s degree.
