All post-secondary institutions attended should be listed regardless of intention to transfer credits to Kettering. Enrollment at Kettering University is also contingent upon satisfactory performance and completion of all courses in which the student is currently enrolled as well as satisfactory completion of courses required for admission. Final high school and college transcripts are required to be submitted to the office of admissions for all incoming students. Failure to do so will affect your ability to register for classes.
