This school puts fees on top of fees.Quite BrightEngineering Department
This school puts fees on top of fees. Dr. Liberty must be the greediest pile of crap in Flint. An alumni tried to inform the public of Kettering Universities issues and instead of trying to fix the problem, Kettering sues the poor guy. They do not know how to run a business, and ironically do not know what "co-op"eration means.

As far as admission goes, they will take in a kid with down syndrome as long as they get his $30k per year tuition.General Motors laid off all their co-ops from Kettering, another ironic event seeing as Kettering used to be called General Motors Institute. I guess they are just called Institute now.

Question
This school is a waste of money.AverageMechanical Engineering
This school is a waste of money. The educational aspect is below average. If this really is the best school in the country (as they say) then this country is in some serious trouble.

A lot of the professors here are terrible. Students must teach themselves most of the material. Many professors are more concerned with their personal projects than with teaching. Teaching is a side job for them. However, there are a few great professors at Kettering.

Kettering is far too expensive for what it gives you. It's not possible to get a full understanding of the material in 11 weeks especially if your professor is incompetent. The only thing of value that Kettering has is the co-op program.

I am tired of working hard only to be screwed by the administration types and the professors. I can't take it anymore.I am embarrassed to say that I go to Kettering University. Go to U of M.
