whoami24601 Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 What's the deal with Kean? Has anyone received an acceptance or rejection? I called the other day and they said they sent out the letters a few days ago, but I have yet to receive anything... Additionally, does anyone know anything about their SLP program? I've heard mixed things... I was accepted into Montclair, and if I am accepted into Kean, I will have to decide between the two. Any information you can give me would be helpful! Thanks!
QS05 Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 I have also not received anything and I don't know anyone who has. Maybe the person you spoke to was thinking of another program? Or maybe the CMD department sent their decisions to the grad school and they have yet to send them out? Not sure. With regards to the program - I have also heard mixed things about Kean and would love to hear what other people have to say about it
Sunshine5535 Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 I called them about a week ago and they said the faculty were sitting down this week to do applications. Hopefully within a week we will be hearing back. I went to their open house last year around this time and spoke with a current student there, toured the clinic. Its absolutely beautiful. They recently moved to a new area from what I remember and everything is state of the art. I hear the faculty is very helpful too. I spoke with several of their faculty members over the summer and they have been really great. Haven't heard negatives from anyone I know but who knows. Seems like a great place to study to me.
Greyhound111 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I called them about a week ago and they said the faculty were sitting down this week to do applications. Hopefully within a week we will be hearing back. Correct (When I inquired recently, I was told the same thing about the notification timeline). No letters have been sent yet (as of this moment).
jesstrom Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I typed in "Kean" in the results page and it actually says that someone received an acceptance today via postal mail! rbrf 1
QS05 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I typed in "Kean" in the results page and it actually says that someone received an acceptance today via postal mail! I just saw that too! Looks like we should be receiving some mail soon rbrf 1
argslp Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I received my acceptance today via postal mail, but that was not me who posted on the results search early. Good luck to all!
whoami24601 Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 I just received my acceptance via email! Best of luck to everyone else!
Helen1234 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 WPU or Kean? Got accepted to both- both look excellent. Any thoughts on pre-reqs, cost, commute, quality education? Thanks! spacecadetwolf and Helen1234 2
QS05 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I received an e-mail saying I was accepted and that my official letter would be arriving in the mail shortly! Good luck to all that applied!
Sunshine5535 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Congratulations to you all!!! I am still waiting. Trying to not have a panic attack. Can I ask do they indicate when u need to let them know by in their letters to you? Just wondering if they will be sending responses out in batches. The big April 15 deadlines coming soon so I'm wondering what their plan is...

For those of us out here (like myself and Sunshine5535 and others)... whom are left waiting on the uncertain timelines that follow... (and as long as we didn't get any sort of notification yet)... appreciate it. Thanks.

I will be declining my offer, so hopefully this will help somebody on the wait list! Good luck! Edited April 6, 2014 by argslp

This helps the rest of us adjust expectations for a longer timeline with Kean at least.
Helen1234 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 @Greyhound111 : I just got my acceptance to Kean Friday afternoon via email- haven't even had a chance to respond. They said they will send me an official letter out and I assume it will let me know when I need to accept by. Out of respect to those wait listed or in a second round of acceptances, I will be replying to my acceptances ASAP- this week in fact.

Thanks so much, best of luck to you and I understand completely :-) I think the anxiety has finally run its course with me and my "rookie" expectations of timeline... Ha !!! Tomorrow, I think I am going to start working on "plan b" ... Sigh ... All happens for a reason ... Edited April 6, 2014 by Greyhound111

Tomorrow, I think I am going to start working on "plan b" ... Sigh ... All happens for a reason ... Thank you sooo much for backing me up on this. It's so nice to have answers. Thanks to all for your responses you def helped ease my mind as well. Greyhound don't give up. This is my 3rd yr applying I had to make a plan b and plan C in the last couple years. But this year so far I do have 1 acceptance but my top choice is Kean. Keep going you can do it!!! Never give up on yourself
Greyhound111 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 @Sunshine5535 - Thanks so much for the positive words of encouragement !!! I wish I had found this board and forum a lot earlier in my (initial) application cycle cause it has been so informative, and has clearly pointed out where I may have been a bit naive about the process, timelines, expectations, and results of all this.
xxxxxoooooxxxxx Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I still haven't heard anything from Kean or Montclair! I was accepted to Nova Southeastern University in FL but would love to stay in NJ!
jesstrom Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I still haven't heard anything from Kean or Montclair! I was accepted to Nova Southeastern University in FL but would love to stay in NJ! Have you tried calling the departments and asking about the status of your application? If not, I highly recommend doing so!
jesstrom Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Does anyone know if there is an accepted student page yet?
Rkon12 Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Does anyone know if there is an accepted student page yet? I dont know of one yet, but I can go ahead and make one. Will post a link here soon!
