When a High school Student thinks of what they will do when they graduate most choose the option of going to college to further their education. When it comes to actually going to college and taking the classes many students realize that it’s not what they expected.

For students at Kean University many don’t make it to their sophomore year. So why are there so many students that choose to leave Kean before they graduate? I tracked down a former Kean student to find out more.

The high cost of education and the tough economic times make it harder and harder for everyone wishing to achieve a degree seems almost impossible. With no answers in sight many are choosing to forget about college all together.

Along with the cost of education the job market is also not what it was a decade ago. Less than half of students who graduate from Kean University find employment when they get out into the job market and are still working part time retail jobs or serving table to make ends meet.

Along with all these problems for students costs are still climbing and there seems to be no end in sight.
