    The one thing I can say about Kean, is the fact they wish to keep up appearances. You'd be hard press to find any litter, messy parking lots, or overfilled garbage/recycling. Traffic around campus can be horrendous, but it's primarily stop and go. Facilities available for all walks of life. And don't worry about parking. You'll get a spotjust might max out your steps for the day. So if, clean atmosphere, diverse culture of people, and a line on Starbucks is your thingcome to Kean, the education is good too.

    Kean is a great University but there are advantages and disadvantages that comes along with it. The cost of tuition is good compared to other University's and college's in the state of New Jersey. Some of the professor are understandable and nicer than others. However, there is racism and discrimination on the campus. As a first year student at Kean University I experienced racism from classmates and students around the campus. The tension is very high between certain African Americans and Caucasian people. Kean's staff members have terrible organization skills . I volunteered at Kean's open house on September 23, 2017. The lady that was in charge of the volunteers did not know what was she was doing. There was nothing but confusion. Last, most of the Kean's police officers are not friendly. Majority of the officers have nasty attitudes. I remember walking to class with my friend and a officer almost hit my friend. Some of the officers are not cautious of the way they drive through the campus.

    Library doesn't open till 8 a.m.
    Thousands and thousands of students but less than hundred computers for access.
    No computer lab in most of the buildings including business school building. Parking is no fun, but better than many other colleges. Campus police are not for your safety but to write tickets and make money.
    Staff and professors are great for most part.

    Great place to learn a lot without the unnecessary excessive stress.

    As someone that goes to this school, I suggest you not come here. Probably the worst experience I’ve ever had and very disorganized. The education department is all over the place and isn’t helpful at all. I truly wish I didn’t come to this school and waste years of time, energy and money.

    This is school is a totaL CAOS! There is way to many students than what the university can hold. It is a complete hassle for commuters, as parking is impossible to find, you have to come 1 hour before your class starting time to be lucky to find parking. Where you can park does not have shuttles, so you have to walk for 10-15 minutes from the MERCK BUILDING to the buildings where you have your classes. YOU PAY OVER $6,000 for a University to have you stressed from the moment you get there. People who work at the university, dont give you correct information, and barely have a degree. This school needs an improvement for their students.

    This college has pros and cons just like any other institution. I was a business major, so I cannot speak for other programs.

    Some of the pros:

    -The campus is beautiful and very well maintained.
    -The campus is more-or-less contained in one area.
    -Some professors (not all) are very helpful if you show that you care.
    -The gym is actually useful.
    -The campus is expanding.
    -Very nice cafeteria.
    -There is a Starbucks next to the library, perfect for white girls. (FYI this is the only Starbucks in the USA that is franchised.)
    -Best school in NJ if you want to become a teacher.
    -STEM building is awesome.

    Cons:
    -Tuition is rising at an exponential rate.
    -Not exactly the most illustrious school.
    -Parking spaces are diminishing because of all the new buildings, adding to the HUGE parking problem that already plagues KU.
    -Not too engaging on campus since most people commute and leave right after their classes are over.
    -The grade curving is absolutely ridiculous. I worked my tail off to receive the same grade as the slackers. It got so bad that I had a 160% in a class one time. Had multiple classes where I received a +100%. How does that work?
    -Administration is horrible (especially admissions).
    -Not exactly located on the best side of town.
    -Student store is expensive (especially books). Student deli is extremely expensive (I'm talking $5-for-a-Red-Bull expensive.)
    -Some professors will avoid you like the plague outside of class.
    -Like anywhere else, some students don't care at all and you will have to deal with that.

    My overall experience with Kean was a good one. I transferred from a community college and Kean definitely was a step up.

    Kean Univesity has its ups and downs like any other school:
    Pros: some really good professors in certain departments: (eg. politics, computers, education, business), relatively easy to get into and graduate from, free on campus events in the beginning of the school year and once in a while, and good library with Starbucks to study in. They have comfortable dorms with heating & a/c, fridges, and programs once in a while, to help engage you with other residents and have fun.
    Cons: Kean almost lost its accreditation in 2012, hardly any parking from 10 AM to 5PM, some of the computers don't work in the library, reports of various crimes around the school in Elizabeth and Union, no activities to do on campus on weekends and everyone goes home, miking it empty not enough tutors to cover all subjects, and no air conditioning in certain buildings. Furthermore, they keep raising the tuition every year.

    I attended KEAN and received my P-12 Education / History degree; the history department is top notch as is the education department. I could have not achieved my teaching license without all of their assistance. I am currently in the Graduate School too finish my Masters Degree and graduate as an ELL/ESL teacher. I recommend KEAN for its education program.

    I graduated from Kean in 2014 with a bachelor of criminal justice. My overall experience was pretty good. I focused on the positives. Kean gave me a degree that I worked so hard for and made me proud.
