How do I transfer to the School of Business?
The undergraduate business program at UM is a three year program beginning in the sophomore year. Students apply to the School of Business in their first year and, if accepted, leave LSA to complete their BBA in the Business School. Admissions are highly competitive. Your general advisor and pre-Business advisors are available for consultation as you consider application to this unit or are weighing other options.

If I don’t get accepted to the Business School, can I apply again next year?

No.

How do I transfer to the School or Engineering or any other undergraduate school on campus?
Students who want to do a cross-campus transfer from LSA to another undergraduate unit must apply and be accepted to that school. Admissions are often highly competitive and you are urged to consult you advisor in LSA as well as an advisor from the unit to which you wish to transfer. 

Is it too late to try for the Engineering School?

Much depends on the classes you’ve taken so far, and your GPA.  Make an appointment to talk to your advisor, and to an advisor from the College of Engineering, to accurately assess your options.

Can I get a teaching certificate?
Yes, you can earn a teaching certificate while you complete your LSA degree. Consult the LSA Bulletin for information on requirements. You should also talk with a School of Education Advisor in the Advising Center.

Do I need to transfer to the School of Education to get a teaching certificate?

It’s not necessary to transfer if you want to get a Secondary Education certificate.  Consult the School of Education web site (http://www.soe.umich.edu/) and the LSA Bulletin for more information.  If you want to teach Elementary School, you need to transfer to the School of Education.  You should attend a School of Education information session, and meet with an Education advisor in the Advising Center.
