Obtain a copy of personal transcripts from the previous degree and ensure the grade-point average is high enough. Michigan colleges often have limitations on GPAs for second bachelor's candidates, typically requiring at least a 2.5 GPA on the previous degree.
Call the school's admissions office and ask whether the school requires one or two years between degrees. Michigan schools will vary on the length, but usually require students to wait at least one year.
Obtain an application form for the school as a second bachelor's student. Michigan colleges have a separate application form from the typical application. It is available for most schools at the school's admissions office or online at the admissions website.
Fill out the form and return it to the school. Pay the application fee. All students who are attending a Michigan university or college for a second bachelor's degree must wait for permission from the admissions office after submitting the form.
Select a major that is significantly different from the original degree. Michigan colleges do not allow students to take majors similar to their original degrees. For example, if the original bachelor's was in psychology, any related degree, such as sociology, social work or a different area of psychology, is not allowed. Taking a major in art, history, math or a hard science is appropriate.
Complete at least 30 credits, the minimum required for graduation. Be aware that for majors that require more than 30 credits to complete the required courses, a higher credit number is often required for graduation.
