Kettering College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Kettering College?

For 2025-26, the reported full-time undergraduate tuition figure is $16,800 for both Ohio residents and nonresidents, with no separate required undergraduate fee reported in that tuition schedule. The reported part-time undergraduate rate is $680 per credit. A separate 2026 college listing gives annual full-time tuition of $16,800; these figures refer to different reporting sources or periods and should not be added together.

Tuition is only one part of an attendance budget. Students may also need to cover books and supplies, housing, food, transportation, personal expenses and program-specific clinical costs. Graduate and professional pricing can differ substantially from undergraduate pricing; applicants should use the published charges for their exact degree and academic year rather than an institution-wide tuition figure.

Financial aid changes what a student may pay, but an average is not an individual offer. In the 2024-25 reporting, average net price for students from families with incomes of $48,000 or less was $15,162; the measure accounts for grant aid and includes estimated attendance expenses, not tuition alone. The college reports that all students in the relevant aid reporting group received some form of financial aid, while 42% received student loans. Loans must generally be repaid, so applicants should compare aid offers by separating grants and scholarships from borrowing.

What are the work-study opportunities at Kettering College?

Student employment and Federal Work-Study are not interchangeable. Federal Work-Study, when awarded to an eligible student, is need-based financial aid earned through an approved job; it is not a grant paid in full simply because it appears on an aid offer.

A student seeking work should ask Kettering College's financial aid office whether Work-Study is available in their award package and how approved positions are posted. Other part-time jobs may be available without a Work-Study award, but their hours and eligibility are determined separately. Clinical placements required for a degree should likewise not be assumed to be paid employment.

The college reports individual career counseling for undergraduates, job-interview opportunities, job fairs and on-campus employer recruitment. Those services can support a search for work or a post-graduation role; they are not a promise of a position.
