Kettering University

Since this is not my first degree, I can compare Kettering to other universities: subpar. You pay a lot of money for nothing. As a student, no one will help you, no one cares about your problems. Some faculty members talk down to you, microaggressions happen all the time towards students, and there is absolutely nothing you can do.

Felt like prison. Poor communication with students, lousy IT and software, faculty and staff have no concern for student safety or academic success. Academic advisors push students off on student "success" center. They do nothing for students. No internships available. Not enough courses offered without internships which are part of curriculum.

If not for the Co-op program, this school would be bottom 10% in the country. Crappy campus life, horrible area, and some incompetent staff.

Co-op program is why we go here. The campus is not safe and is absolute trash except for the rec center and the learning commons, which has drastically improved campus life. Yeah if you want to start working early then go here, if you want a social life, a wife, and to not be depressed than avoid this place at all costs.

Aging campus and poor location do not make for a social environment.

Flint is sketchy. School is stressful. If you are on the meal plan you will feel sick after every meal. There are some awesome teachers here but there are an equal amount of terrible professors. Not sure how Kettering hasn't weeded them out yet. Overpriced, worth the pain in the end but it really doesn't have to be this painful Kettering.

Good for engineers. Some really great professors scattered about many mediocre ones. Campus security is more likely to give you a ticket for an expired parking pass than if you didn't have one in the first place and the university only cares about money. Oh and when you graduate you get hot dogs for the senior barbeque because you're only students

The professors for most classes are subpar, class schedule organization is poor (a lot of people took classes without every taking prerequisites and were thus at a disadvantage within the class), the buildings are not well taken care of, it is near impossible to transfer out because the credits don't count for much at other colleges.

A university with potential to be really great is hindered by being in the middle of a disgusting, horrible city. I'd rate "Location" and "Safety" as a 0 if I could. There also seems to be very few professors that are actually good at teaching, but I don't have experiences with other universities with which to compare.

Need to muddle through, will allow great job upon graduation.
