Kean University Top Questions

I wish I knew more about the programs at this school, I came to Kean University because i like the campus but another major reason for me coming was because i wanted to play soccer. I also wish i was know more about the commitment that being a stident athlete is while trying to juggle college as well. Finally i wish i knew more about school itself, as in, the area it located, and what they have to offer to the student.

how people act

I wish I would have known financial aid grants would fully cover the costs of attenting this university.

I wish I had known that the campus is basically a ghost town on the weekends.

I wish I had known how involved my major would be. I often spent 12-14 hour days on campus, and had I expected that, I would have dormed at Kean rather than commuting over 40 miles per day.

There is nothing else about this school that I would have wanted to know. It was just as I expected.

I wish I had more information about scholarship opportunities when transferring to Kean University. There was a significant increase in tuition payments in comparison to community college prices. After starting classes, I realized I had missed many of the deadlines of scholarships that I would have been eligible for. I also would have like to know more about class registration dates, by the time I received the opportunity to register as a ?transfer student? majority of the classes were filled. My first semester in was very challenging schedule-wise because it was not ideal for my personal agenda.

I wish I was taught more studying techniques in high school. When I came to college I found it harder to study because there was such a bigger work load. So if incoming students are taught different study techniques then there will be a high success rate of first semester students.

I wish I knew that my gardes in high school were going to be looked at in the future. I wish I would have known to save money and plan to pay out of pocket for college instead of taking out loans. To this day I regret some of the items I purchased with out thinking about college tuition. Overall, I wish I could have taken high school seriously to try to get a scholarships to pay for school. My mom told me to apply for scholarships but I did not. I regret that most of all.

One wish that i have that i have known before i attended Kean is to see my advisor twice a semester and decide what i really wanted my major to be early on and get rid of all major requirements first.
