College
Transitions Program
The College Transitions Program
(CTP) serves students who show strong potential for success but
don't meet Northern's admissions requirements. These students
are enrolled at the University under conditional status.
 The
CTP is designed to help dedicated students get through their
first semester at NMU successfully and give them the tools necessary
to complete a degree or certificate program. Strong commitment
is a must to be successful in the program. Meeting with
your adviser, participating in assessment activities, following
your educational plan, and achieving a minimum grade point average
must be priorities.
Upon
entering Northern, CTP students are required to sign a
Freshman Probation Agreement. The
FPA outlines the requirements CTP students must meet during
the semester.
All
students will be assigned an advisor. Most advising for the
College Transitions Program is done by the Vocational Support
Services Staff,
but a number of faculty from other departments also advise
our students.
Your
adviser can offer you assistance ranging from academic, personal,
and career counseling to providing financial aid information. Your
adviser can even help you find a tutor, study group, or a workshop
on campus that will present you with additional strategies
to help you meet your academic goals.
You
can see your advisor as often as you like, but you will be
required to see him or her at least three times a semester.
You can contact the Vocational Support Services staff to get
answers to questions or assistance in dealing with the University.
Please call if you have questions; we’re glad to help. (906)
