NOTES:
1. Grand Valley State University (GVSU) honors the MACRAO Transfer Agreement.
   Students whose transcripts are endorsed as "MACRAO Satisfied" will only be 
   required to meet the following GVSU Provisos:
   a. demonstrate proficiencies in math [fulfilled with MATH 126 at LCC]
   b. two cultural classes [fulfilled with CHOICE 2 and 3 above]
   To use MACRAO, students should request a MACRAO evaluation of their transcript
   from the LCC Registrar's Office.  Students who do not satisfy MACRAO will have
   to satisfy the GVSU General Education Requirements. 
2. GVSU accepts a maximum of 62 transferable credits. The GVSU transfer admission
   grade point average is 2.50.  LCC courses other than those appearing on this 
   guide should be checked for transferability to the four-year institution.
3. Degree offered:  Bachelor of Science (BS) degree. Students are encouraged to 
   select electives with the assistance of a GVSU advisor.
4. Natural Resource Management majors will be prepared to assume responsibility
   for the management of natural resources on either private or public lands.  
   They will be prepared to deal with optimizing and balancing the use and pro-
   duction of commodities such as soils, water, timber, range land, and minerals
   with the less tangible values of scenery, air and water quality, recreation, 
   wildlife, and social well-being.
5. 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.

   Computerized Placement Tests in the LCC Assessment Center (GB 200) prior to
   registration.  For testing hours call (517) 267-5500.
