<p>HS: International
SAT/ACT: didn't take it
UEC (something like A-levels): 3 A1, 1 A2, 4 B</p>

- applying Industrial and Operational Engineering</p>
<p>Please chance me and give me any suggestions! I always wanted to go to Michigan and this is my only chance! Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>Michigan requires an ACT/SAT score for transfer (even international students), unless there are some extenuating circumstances. For engeneering I think you have a decent shot. Michigan typically accepts 40% of transfer, but the percentage is lower for engeneering. Anyways good luck.</p>
<p>Yeah, do make sure you take the ACT/SAT. But in your case, you should be fine because for transfer admissions, all you need are credits and GPA. My friend’s sister who worked in the admissions office before said they really don’t prioritize transfers because freshmen admissions are much more important for numbers so all they really care about is that you have a good GPA and will graduate on time. As long as you have all the requirements finished and keep that GPA strong, you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>^Yeah, even for engineering. It’s more difficult but not by that much. One of my friends actually managed to backdoor his way into CoE, even though he hadn’t completed all of his prereqs. He wasn’t accepted as a freshman but applied as a transfer after one year. His sister, who had graduated from there, had managed to set him up in a meeting with a ChemE adviser and that adviser thought he had the stats to make it so she accepted him there thus he got in just about a month before Fall classes started. Of course that’s not the way the majority of people get admitted but it just shows how much priority they put on transfer admissions.</p>
