Pre-Agriculture & Natural Resources
SVSU and Michigan State University have prepared a Pre-Agriculture Transfer Guide (149KB) leading to the MSU Bachelor of Science 
degree. The guide outlines SVSU courses to complete during the first two years of college at SVSU, before transferring to MSU.
Copies of the transfer guide are available through SVSU Admissions for incoming students, and through the Academic Advisement Center for current students. Students are also encouraged to use MSU's transfer equivalency system to search how SVSU courses transfer.
Below is a list of MSU programs toward which SVSU's MSU-bound students may want to gear themselves, by completing relevant SVSU course work before transferring to MSU.
