Overall I think the school is just ok. If I had the choice to go else where or transfer I would. That is only my personal opinion. My most memorable moments at the school is the carnival and meet the greeks the school have yearly, it's fun to attend and a great place to meet new people with common interest.

Kean University ... I love it. When I was looking for a college I attended the Kean Student for a day program. This program was a great experience and after I attended I knew this was the college for me. I also signed up for the summer T2K program, where you live on campus for 2 nights and attend leadership events. Once again this was an A+ program, I made many friends and even thought I commute to college, I stay most nights and attend many of the University events.
