University Admissions

Kean University’s Office of Admissions is responsible to recruit, select, admit and assist prospective freshman, transfer, graduate and international students who demonstrate the highest probability for persistence, academic success and graduation from Kean University.

Applicants are admitted to Kean University on the basis of academic and extracurricular qualifications. The recruitment and admissions procedures are used to select the most qualified students for the University. Each applicant is considered carefully in light of his/her secondary school record, performance on the SAT or the ACT exam, prior college credit completed, and the University’s determination of potential for college success.

Alternative opportunities for admission can be discussed with an admissions counselor.

Undergraduate Admissions services include open house events, campus tours, onsite decision programs, high school visits and individual counseling.

Freshmen are admitted to the fall and spring semesters only and transfer applicants are eligible to apply for the fall, spring, winter, summer I and summer II sessions. The University expects that all applicants offered admission will register for classes for the semester immediately following acceptance. Accepted students that provided any misrepresentation or omission of fact on their application to the University may constitute cause for nullification of their application prior to admission or dismissal following admission.
