OP needs to speak with the guidance counselor, learn his Mich options, including any transfer programs. The state guaranteed transfer programs nearly always apply only to in-state 4 year colleges. And he can look up the 4-year schools for info on transferable credits, whether through this sort of program or a separate transfer application.
The info is out there. If a 4-year and credits are important, he needs to do this leg work. Not argue here. He can also run NPCs, Net Price Calculators.
