Enrollment Management / 7 TRANSFER STUDENTS Transfer Students Seeking Admissions Kettering encourages students with high school diploma or GED and prior college experience to seek admission and co-op employment. Transfer students who have pursued an equivalent program of full-time study will be evaluated on their overall college record GPA. A separate GPA will also be calculated for English, mathematics and science course work. Candidates who have not pursued full-time collegiate study and/or followed a program of studies that does not include extensive study of mathematics and science will be evaluated individually on their high school and college records as well as test scores. An official high school transcript and official transcripts from all colleges previously attended must be submitted. A transfer student who has completed more than 56 credit hours will not be required to submit a final high school transcript. If you have completed less than 30 credit hours at another college or university, ACT or SAT scores must be submitted. A list of courses in progress and the catalog(s) with course descriptions from each college attended must also be submitted. The academic credentials submitted by transfer applicants must present evidence of high academic performance required at Kettering University. Academic acceptance by Kettering will be contingent upon satisfactory performance in all courses in which the applicant is or will be enrolled prior to attendance at the University. Final high school transcrips (if student has completed 56 or less credit hours at a post-secondary institution) and college transcripts are required to be submitted to the office of admissions for incoming students. Failure to do so will affect your ability to register for classes. Kettering University has formal articulation agreements with selected colleges that provide opportunities for admission to the University, and transferability of courses, upon satisfactory completion of the approved program (grades and courses). Students who complete the equivalent of the first two years of Kettering courses are generally able to complete their Kettering University degree and associated co-op work experience at the University within three years. Transfer Credit Evaluation Courses submitted for transfer credit consideration should be comparable in content and rigor to those offered at Kettering University. Applicants must provide an official transcript to Kettering. In addition, applicants may be required to provide the Registrar's Office with a college catalog course syllabi or additional information for evaluation purposes. Applicants will be contacted with the results of the credit evaluation. Transfer of Professional Cooperative Education Work Experience Regular matriculated or transfer students entering Kettering with less than JR1 standing who have participated in other comparable collegelevel cooperative education work experience programs or who have significant work experience related to their Kettering University degree program may be eligible to transfer this work experience towards their degree requirements. Students wishing to pursue such action should contact the Enrollment Management Office to determine the documentation necessary to transfer a maximum of two work experience terms (only applicable toward freshman-sophomore requirements). Second Baccalaureate Degree All course requirements of the degree program must be satisfied and the student must complete at least five work terms which include the two thesis terms. The student is required to write a Kettering University senior thesis. The student’s degree program must be approved by the head of the degree-granting department. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMITTED STUDENTS Professional Cooperative Education Employment Process After academic acceptance, students complete their resumé and pay the $200 tuition deposit to confirm their attendance. Credentials of accepted and deposited applicants are forwarded to potential co-op employers by the University. Careful attention is given to the student’s objectives, needs, and preferences as well as employer criteria. While most students who obtain co-op employment are matched through the efforts of Kettering University staff, some students each year find their own co-op employment by initiating contact with companies that are appropriate to their objectives. The Kettering University Cooperative Education staff is happy to assist students with this process. Companies choose to interview an applicant based on the student’s academic background, test scores, class rank, employment history, extracurricular activities, and honors. Factors influencing final selection include strong communication skills, leadership potential, vocational interest, desire for a career in business and industry, and the capacity to acquire the necessary academic and practical background for a future position of responsibility. Information concerning the interviewing process is available from the Office of Cooperative Education, 810-762-7865. Tuition Deposit Upon acceptance, students confirm their enrollment at Kettering University by submitting a $200 tuition deposit. Upon receipt of this deposit, the professional cooperative education (co-op) employment search process begins. The full amount is applied as partial payment for the first semester’s tuition. The tuition deposit is fully refundable until May 1.

The information on the form remains confidential for use in the Wellness Center and will not be released without the student’s knowledge or written consent. This information is the basis for a continuing record of health care. Although a medical examination is not required prior to admission to Kettering University, employers may require an exam because of the working conditions of co-op employment or as a condition of employment. Questions concerning admission to Kettering University should be directed to: Kettering University, Admissions Office, 1700 West Third Avenue, Flint, MI 48504-4898.
