Transfer Student Orientation
WELCOME TO COUGAR NATION!
We are excited to welcome you to our vibrant community. As you embark on this new chapter of your academic journey, we designed Transfer Student Orientation (TSO) to ensure you have a smooth transition into university life. All incoming NEW Kean Union transfer students are required to attend. The session includes learning how to navigate campus, registering for classes, finding out about campus support services, meeting your new classmates, and building meaningful connections.
*You must log in to your Cougar App account, and then you will be able to register for the event if you are admitted for the Summer or Fall 2025 semester and have paid your deposit.
