Transfer Agreements & Guides

Articulation agreements are contracts signed by the presidents of each institution guaranteeing transfer of the courses listed on those documents. Many colleges and universities have mapped additional paths for you to transfer to their institution. We've linked directly to their websites because these guides, while extremely useful, can and do change.

Another way Delta helps make the transfer process easier is by having a University Transfer Center. Central Michigan University, Davenport University, Ferris State University, Michigan State University, Northwood University and Saginaw Valley State University all have offices at our Main Campus. Here, you can talk with the people who know how to make your transition as smooth as possible.

    Will my credits transfer?

    The short answer is 'yes'. We have articulation agreements and transfer guides in place to transfer whole programs.

    If you want to transfer just a few courses, you can do that too. It's a perfect method for students home for the summer to use.  If you want to earn a few credits and transfer them back to your home university, Delta College can make it happen.
