Review of Kean University

from Morris County, NJ

Describe your college in three sentences.

Kean University is a beautiful, uplifting school that is full of diversity and activities that will always keep you busy. Kean is a great place for education and great place to start a lifetime with friends. It's a place you'll be happy with for sure.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

It's not a big campus, but it's big enough where you will be able to have a chance to start over your life. The teachers do try and get to know you personally and safety is number one here at Kean. If you're a commuter, don't even sweat, you'll be making friends faster than you know it. Also the Starbucks here on campus is pretty amazing.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Kean University is a University. For a 4 years university it is acreddited to be one of the best teaching schools in the state. Same goes as well for all majors.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life is great at Kean University. They hold a dry campus, but don't let deter you from having a little fun. Your roommates and suitemates become your greatest friends and new freshman is a great place to live. In my opinion though, Whiteman is better, as long as you're ok with no air conditioning.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The Dining Center located at the dorms is a NO GO. I mean you can go and its its edible, but not as amazing as the UC dining hall. That food is just plain out amazing.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There's always plenty of stuff to do at Kean. Whether it be a play at Wilkins, Keanfit at Downs Hall, working out at Harwood , Club meetings at the UC, game nights at UC and much more. You should never get bored at Kean, just leave your room or come on on campus and have a great time!

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Kean is a great place for education, but $4400 is a big number to live on campus for 4 months. The facilities are great, but that number is a bit of a stretch.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are so many clubs and activities on campus to join. Go on cougarlink and there are legitimately more than 50. Don't be shy and definitely join as many clubs as your heart desires.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Greek Life at Kean University is alot of fun. Expect to get a brother or sister who actually cares about you and make a friendships to last a lifetime.
