Transfer Bridges to Michigan is an opportunity for Schoolcraft students interested in transferring to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts at the University of Michigan. Students interested in studying the humanities and social sciences have access to additional programs and support through Transfer Bridges to the Humanities @ Michigan.
Transfer Bridges to the Humanities @ Michigan (TB2H) includes summer program components, and other co-curricular and extracurricular opportunities so students will get to know their U-M professors and fellow students before transferring from Schoolcraft to U-M Ann Arbor. The funding provided for Transfer Bridges to the Humanities makes additional opportunities available for Schoolcraft students. TB2H students at Schoolcraft will have the opportunity to take part in programming on their campus and in Ann Arbor with the following TB2H partners.
Through individual advising conversations, online resources, and workshops, your professionals from the Transfer Bridges team will help you develop your academic plan, choose courses to maximize transfer credit, and set your professional goals.
Pre-Transfer Academic Advising

They will help guide you through the exploration and application process while providing the student perspective on what it is like to be a U-M student transferring from a Michigan community college.
