Welcome Fall 2018 Students!

What is T2K?

Transition to Kean (T2K) is designed to help prepare you for life as a college student, and to help you adjust to the rigors of college life. Specifically, this special section is for incoming RAM (Research Aligned Mentorship) freshmen to serve as an introduction to the fall academic semester as a RAM scholar. At the end of this one week session, RAM students earn a letter grade and academic credit for completion of the T2K course, and do NOT take the course in their freshmen fall semester as do all other Kean freshmen. This course is 1 credit towards graduation and is letter graded, thus it does affect your Kean undergraduate GPA.
