Transfer Application

6. Complete the electronic Transfer Supplement by June 1.

This is the second component of the application. Only applicants who submit a complete application with all required documents will receive an invitation to complete the Transfer Supplement.

The Transfer Supplement requires:

Scanned copies of all college-level transcripts with final course grades and credits earned. These are usually downloaded from your institution's student portal. Courses taken on an optional pass/fail basis must be accompanied by official documentation of a grade of C or better. Scanned documents submitted as part of your Transfer Supplement are unofficial. If admitted, you will be required to provide official transcripts sent directly from your institution(s).

If admitted, you may also be asked for course syllabi that are not listed in the U-M Transfer Equivalency Guide, which you will have the opportunity to submit in the supplement.
