Kean University

Kean University has been my home for the last 6 years. I graduated here with a Bachelors in psychology and a minor in Biology. I then graduated there with my Masters in Occupational Therapy. Kean is on of the best educational institutions that provide quality professor and facilities for a great affordable price. The best advice I can give to any students is to make sure that you advocate for yourself, take advantage of scholarships and student organizations. These will facilitate your educational growth and experiences. Only you can make things happen!

Went to high school state championship game here. The bleachers were covered in bird shit. They could have pressure washed them prior to the game.

Although the campus itself is somewhat decent, it is so not worth the stress attending this college as administration is REALLY unprofessional. The adults that work in this place appear to bring their personal «problems» to the job with them — particularly in the financial aid and student accounting department. They really need to train them on customer service. They make you feel like you are taking money out of their pockets! I now see why Kean has such a low graduation rate and a high transfer one. It all makes sense…

I spend most of my time at the library. Facilities are decent. The students have this bad habit of coming into the quiet study area and speaking/​joking/​laughing in a volume that is needed for an outdoor sports stadium… I don’t get it, and I really haven’t seen so much disrespect for other people’s time before coming to Kean.

Stopped by to see former professor, who I consider to be a mentor and value his opinion!
Wow! I have only been an alumni just two years and what a difference the school has made in the area of constructing new additional buildings and upgrading the grounds. It appears this has been one of the schools major goals, seems to be working!
Campus looks superb and the schools academic curriculum is on track with other universities in New Jersey too!
The only downside of the campus is the parking… Seems to be an issue at most universities… I completed my undergraduate at Montclair State University and they built a high rise parking garage, which seemed to alleviate some of the parking issues. Would be nice to see Kean follow in that direction… I guess politics plays a role too…
Soon to open, is a new Barnes and Noble Book Store on Morris Avenue, looking forward to the opening! In addition, there have been major improvements in the library too. For example, more spacious and StarBucks is connected to the library too, which Is a nice treat… Plus you are able to use the Starbucks app too… Gotta get my rewards!

what a waste of my time attending Kean University.
There are some good professors but the administration SUCKS.
They DO NOT GAF about students education
NO ONE that works in ANY department ever has answers, they love sending you all over campus for NOTHING
MOST of the people I went here with NO LONGER ATTEND
I transferred to Stockton as did others, I know many that transferred to Rutgers, Willy P & Montclair .
the only ppl I personally know that stayed are ppl who get much assistance. if it was free for me to go i probably would have stayed also.
THIS IS THE WORST SCHOOL IN NJ
i know many other ppl that feel the same way
if i couldn’t transfer to any other school and i had to choose between dropping out or finishing at Kean, i would be a drop out — it’s that bad.
