Office of Residence Life

The Office of Residence Life, within the Division of Student Affairs, is responsible for on-campus housing at Kean University.

Residence halls are communities where students can explore new ideas, meet different people, engage in responsible behavior, and experience independence. Residence hall living provides a multicultural opportunity for students to gain various personal learning experiences. It helps students meet their needs and potential through responsible programming and effective use of available resources. As a result, students become active members of a unique community engaged in personal and academic growth.

The residence life program accommodates 2,000 full-time undergraduate and graduate students within seven residence halls. The staff promotes an environment conducive to living and learning.

The Office of Residence Life offers services such as an academic center, cardio room, wireless internet, in-hall security, and recreational and social space.  

Students interested in participating in this unique community are encouraged to contact the Office of Residence Life (908) 737-1700.
