Advisory Council on Transfer Success
About the Council
The Advisory Council on Transfer Success (ACTS) is an advisory group of 16 representatives from Michigan’s public and private colleges and universities who will endorse a statewide, student-centered vision for transfer success and inform MiLEAP's Office of Higher Education (OHE) strategy on its broader transfer success project. ACTS will develop guiding principles, review and assess current transfer infrastructure, and inform the vendor-supported process to develop ten new transfer pathways in high-demand fields.
As part of its charge, ACTS will champion transfer success as an institutional and statewide priority, supporting the State’s Transfer Success Project by helping OHE staff navigate the transfer landscape, engage relevant partners, and advocate for productive change.
