Official From Michigan State University's own transfer equivalency table.
Likely Our best guess from matching subject, level and title. Michigan State University hasn't confirmed it, so check the official table before you count on it.
Credit only You'd likely get the hours, not a specific Michigan State University course. Hours still count toward your total.
Won't transfer Michigan State University doesn't give course credit for these.

Estimated from public catalogs, state transfer rules and other students' records. The school you transfer to makes the final decision. ClassMaxx is not affiliated with Michigan State University or SUNY Adirondack.

See how your credits count

In the app, upload your transcript once and ClassMaxx shows credits toward your Michigan State University major, credits that become electives, what won't transfer, and what to take at SUNY Adirondack now so it counts.

ClassMaxx is not affiliated with Michigan State University. We never ask for a school password.
