I have an upcoming interview at Kean University on 11/14. Has anyone heard anything about the interview process or been there for an interview before?

I submitted early and was verified around 9/1. Stats weren't too great but still got an interview.

Well I had an interview on the same day as the OP, and it wasn't super traditional. You're paired with someone else and you take turns answering a standard set (i think it was 5 total) of questions based upon life experiences. Can be related to PT, school, work, really anything.

I know I didn't perform well as it was my 2nd PT interview. The interviewer gave me anxiety lol. But the questions were along the lines of "tell me about a time you provided care for someone" "tell me about a time you realized you were wrong and how you made up for it" "tell me a time when you given misinformation and used it to get the correct information."

some of these questions were hard to think about on the spot, was pretty nerve-racking.

Did they give any info about how many people were interviewed or whether you were guaranteed to either be waitlisted/admitted or when you'll hear? I know they said they were going to do another in Jan but I assume if they've already done one they may fill the class before then..

I'm certain they said there will be another interview date. As well as all the decisions will be made around January. I doubt they'll fill all the seats in one swoop, because they get a lot of applicants to interview.

November 14. A different experience from other interviews, but I liked it. I have a business background so I was happy I could incorporate my different experiences into my responses. But still very nerve racking! Best of luck!

I loved the campus, and the faculty. Im still waiting to hear from other schools, that are closer to me. The down payment is 500, and non-refundable
