Kean University Top Questions

the worst thing about my school is the lack of parking! but that is being fixed within the next year, with a brand new parking garage : )

I honestly do not think Kean is meant for one to pursue a fulfilling career. In general terms, Kean is a college suited for students to build their GPA to transfer to more reputable Universities, where a college degree has more credence and prestige behind it (Such as NYU, Columbia, Wharton, MIT, Cornell, Harvard, Yale). The only good point on Kean is that the tuition is EXTREMELY affordable, and can be used to build a base for improving previous GPAs, so that scholarships for transfers can be attained.

You dont feel the " college experience" when living there. Parking's terrible. The staff (non-professors) really dont care about helping. Majority of the students arnt friendly. You'll make a few friends and that's about it. Theres not a lot of on-campus living available . The food that's available to those who have a meal plan (those living on campus) is terrible. The school spends its money on planting new trees or buying new statues than using it on appropiate things. Like a parking structure, better food, more for those who live on campus to do, etc...

The worst thing about my school is the parking situation. There are so many students who commute it is sometimes hard to get a parking space, therefore students sometimes arrive late to class interrupting the professor and other students who are trying to learn.

the worst thing about my school is that they keep raising the university fees, and don't tell where the money is going.

I believe the worst thing about my school would have to be the construction that is always occuring. From my very first year at Kean up until now there has always been a lot of construction going on during the summer and all throughout the school year. There is always some new detour that you must follow to get to class, and with everyone estimating the path they saw yesterday to this new path sometimes it makes it hard to arrive in class on time. But the good thing is that you get to discover new scenery at the school.
