A majority of students have seen the signs that say “Take Classes; Earn Bucks" around campus, but what do they really mean? Well, it’s simple – taking classes on the weekend makes one eligible for up to $300 in Kean Bucks.

Kean University knows it’s rough to sacrifice a weekend to academics so the Office of Student Accounting wants to commend the students for the effort with rewards. For every class that begins after 3:30 p.m. on Fridays and before 12 p.m. on Saturdays, students can receive up to $50 per credit. For every class taken after noon on a Saturday, students can earn up to $100 per credit.

Kean Bucks can be used at a variety of locations throughout the multiple campuses. Such places that honor Kean Bucks are the Kean University Bookstore, Ocean County College Bookstore and Main Campus food outlets, including Starbucks and the Cougar’s Den.
