For exact beginning and ending dates of a term, see the Kettering Academic Calendar.

What courses can I take?

Guest Students may take any class as long as they meet the class prerequisites and there is space available. Individual courses for upcoming terms may be viewed on Kettering’s Dynamic Schedule.

What is the Cost?
