This plan is a guide for students who wish to begin their coursework at Schoolcraft College and transfer into the Bachelor of Science
Computer Science program offered by the College of Engineering at Wayne State University.
No more than 64 credits from a two-year school will apply toward a Wayne State degree, though all earned hours which transfer will be listed
on the Wayne State University student record.
If you earned an Associate of Arts (AA), Associate of Liberal Arts (ALA), Associate of Science (AS) or Associate of Baccalaureate Studies
(ABS) degree, from your Michigan community college, you will have your Wayne State general education requirements satisfied. However,
you will need to satisfy any other school, college, or major requirement. Please note that certain programs in the College of Engineering
recommend specific courses to fulfill General Education requirements (IC), (OC), (PL), and (SS).
Please see an academic advisor at Wayne State University for a complete major plan.
See WSU’s current undergraduate bulletin for up-to-date requirements (http://bulletins.wayne.edu).
