Editor's notes
- Test-optional at Kean doesn't mean less paperwork. If you skip the SAT or ACT, Kean requires two recommendation letters, a one- to two-page goals essay and an activities list. Line those up before you apply without scores.
- Check your major's date, not just April 30. Architectural Studies, three-year Nursing and Interior Design all have their own fall deadlines, and the arts and architecture programs ask for extra materials.
