NOTES:
1.  This transfer guide supports an articulation (partnership) agreement between
    Lansing Community College (LCC) and Ferris State University (Ferris).  This 
    program has been designed in two formats, one for students who enter the 
    program as freshmen or who transfer into the program after having completed 
    an associate degree, and the second for students who wish to complete a 
    bachelor's degree while enrolled in a clinical associate degree program.
2.  Graduates of the health career related associate degree programs (nursing, 
    dental hygiene, radiologic technology, etc.) are encouraged to discuss
    the FSU Health Care Systems Administration option with the Ferris Program 
    Coordinator (see below).
3.  Students must complete the MACRAO Transfer Agreement with the MACRAO Stamp 
    on their transcripts.  Students having completed MACRAO will be required to 
    complete one of the 300-Level Advanced English courses at Ferris.
4.  Students not completing the MACRAO must meet the Ferris General Education 
    Requirements with a 2.0 cumulative GPA. Students must meet with the transfer
    advisor (see below) when selecting courses to meet the FSU General Education
    requirements.
5.  Application/Admissions Requirements:
    a. Transfer students must be admitted 21 days prior to the first day of the 
       semester they plan to attend.
    b. A 2.5 overall GPA is required for admission to the HCSA degree program.
    c. Official college transcripts must be submitted at time of application.
    d. It is recommended that applicants have a strong preparation in English, 
       speech communications, and computer science.
6.  MATH 112 satisfies LCC Core and the FSU major requirement; MATH 121 satisfies
    LCC Core, MACRAO, and the FSU major requirement.  
7.  WRIT 131 and 132 or ENGL 122 may be substituted for WRIT 121 and 122.
8.  PHIL 260 does not meet MACRAO.  Students selecting PHIL 260 are still 
    required to complete 8 credits of MACRAO approved humanities.
9.  Students should work with a FSU advisor when selecting electives.
10. Students seeking an LCC associate degree must fulfill specific graduation
    requirements including the LCC general education core requirements.  See the
    LCC catalog at http://www.lcc.edu/catalog for additional details.
11. This transfer guide requires basic skill levels in mathematics, reading, and
    writing.  To determine accurate course placement, students should take the 
    Computerized Placement Tests in the LCC Assessment Center (GB 200) prior to
    registration.  For testing hours call (517) 267-5500.
