Housing isn’t included in any universities tuition. It’s separate everywhere. Also most universities require for you to buy a meal plan your first year and some also require for you to stay on campus first yr, so I guess that’s a good thing that you have options.
thanks for this because there website really makes it seem like they have the best school/campus in the world and I needed some raw information even tho every college has its cons I would honestly like to pick a college that’s more social for my freshman year.
I go to Kennesaw, and want to mention something about the studying/library part. What you said is ONLY particular to the Kennesaw Campus. As far the Kennesaw campus there is a lot of spaces to study. Bonus: it's super quite. Not a hate comment, just want to acknowledge the other campus too :)
I'm in my fifties. I went to Syracuse University years ago and they were known for great parties. lol. Sooooo many people you saw the first year were gone the second year. I say that to say, sometimes our blessings are disguised.
Man I lived with my aunt when I was in college, rent free as long I as in school. Worked part time and got a little pell grant. Didn't miss out on much. Way cheaper!
I'm honestly so scared cuz I'm a high school senior and I really been wanting to go here for years, but financial problems ain't no joke. They can't be playing with money now🤦🏾
@@JillCheese Best Part about this . It will be dead quiet at night and I don't like being around people and the parties is exactly for me because, I don't like acting like a tramp. I'm just going to Study & Get my education and Leave
Thank you so much I know its reasons not to go but I’m still going i’ve been wanting to go since I was a little kid so my hopes are not going downwards
Girl you answered ALLLLLL my questions I had in my head. I’m a rising senior transferring from Savannah State, but I’m looking forward to the transition.
Did you like GSU or would you rather KSU now that you experienced first? Cause I’m coming from a HBCU so I’m tryna see which school to transfer too. Lol help.
My secrete Kennesaw State University (KSU) Insider Info: I graduated KSU in 2011 and have been working at KSU since. I hit tenure & am about to quit. Colleges/Universities & degrees are mostly scams. Unless you know unequivocally that you want to go into a specialized career field , ex: Doctor, Lawyer, Astronaught, etc., then you really don't need a degree. Roughly, 75% of jobs don't give two shits whether you have a degree or not & in whatever topic. They care about whether you're knowledgeable in the specific field & can do the job well while making them money. A degree requirement is primarily just a way to try to ensure that an applicant has a certain level of intelligence, work ethic, & professionalism. That's all. But what's worse, Colleges/Universities artificially impose degree restrictions for working at those same Colleges/Universities. For example -- You MUST have at least a Master's degree in order to be considered & hired as a Faculty member at KSU. It doesn't matter if you have 35+ years of experience, are universally considered the world's most renowned expert in a specific field or topic, or were personally recommended by the President of the United States. You will NEVER be hired here as a faculty member unless you got that piece of paper proving you "did your time." Lastly, staff employees here are thought of & treated like bottom-of-the-barrel garbage high school-aged trash working part-time jobs. They're overworked, highly scrutinized, underpaid, & unrecognized. Despite doing a majority of the work. Our HR department doesn’t care about what’s best for the employees and their mental/emotional well-being. They only care about protecting the university, it’s assets, and its profits above all else. KSU employees are artificially prevented from being exceptional employees. We’re advised against going above and beyond, doing exceptional work, or try to better the university. That’s not a part of your job description (Hey, they have to show “Growth” somehow in OneUSG. Not like KSU could pay you for these kinds of employees anyway). Furthermore, KSU has no promotional structure. The job you accepted and were hired into is the same exact one you’ll have until the day you die, apply to a different department, or leave. Even * IF * you were to hit tenure, you'd only get 10% of your highest earning salary every year for the rest of your life once you hit retirement age (67). For staff, this is roughly $350 p/ month in retirement benefits. Faculty, on the other hand, are treated like G.D. divine royalty solely because they make colleges/university’s money & earn them prestige. Want to guess what we get when retiring? A cheap paper certificate and a $5 gift card to our university bookstore. …Woohoo… In recent years, under President Pamela Whitten, KSU got rid of numerous essential support departments and significantly cut back on student and employee events and activities. Did I mention her salary was in the $500,000.00’s? Seriously, Don’t go here! Sincerely, a forgotten about and disgruntled employee who KSU wouldn’t bother to give a single F’ about and would probably love to immediately sue into the ground for having any constructive opinion or critique other than an absolutely glowing positive one. - _ -
Remember me this is my other account I was born at Kennesaw State University I lived their for 22 year since 2001 I am ashamed to be trapped at Kennesaw State university all the time but now I get good about it go owl
This girl on campus did my hair and provided the hair for me . If you DM me on insta I’ll give you her info . And definitely HMU if you have any questions
DAKARI I honestly haven’t considered transferring bc this school is alright ... I only made this video to let people know the real tea before they attend
Hi, I am going to KSU in the fall, and what I've noticed about the differences between campuses is that there are a lot more things to do on the Kennesaw campus than on the Marietta campus, also in my opinion I think the housing on the Kennesaw campus is better than the other
Kennesaw is best friend we are the closest ever I was born in Kennesaw state University I was taken care by Kennesaw I was born as owl I was born in Kennesaw, State, University
Ok so i have a car which has a note and i plan on transferring to KSU but i live in Gwinnett. I plan on pledging the semester i transfer so i really don’t want to commute but i also don’t want to come out if pocket a whole ton just to live on campus. I was looking a the apartments which don’t look too bad but in all i don’t know what to do. Can you give me some advice?
Breonah Gonzalez it’s definitely cheaper to stay off campus @ u pointe or somewhere like sova. and if you stay off campus it’ll save you money from not having to get a meal plan.
Emma Joseph ok because I’m tryna go in a whole lot of debt just to be close to or on camp .. i barely work cause I’m in my major now so i definitely need something that i can afford to pay all my bills and not feel tied down if you get what I’m saying
Breonah Gonzalez no . If you have money left from financial aid you’d get a refund . That refund goes into your bank account then you can choose to use it on rent
i def think u should go bc the academics and resources are there . i think this school is a great university , just at times it is very unorganized and expensive in a sense for on campus housing and the meal plan
simoneninah yea so when u get your bill from kennesaw , it’ll only have your tuition and meal plan costs on there . When you are ready to pay for your housing you have to go onto the housing portal, and that is where you make your payment . But if you don’t have enough to pay it in full all you have to do is email housing and say that you would like to set up a housing plan and they’ll create one based on your financial aid . But if you don’t contact them and ask you’ll be expected to pay it in full . All your financial aid will be automatically applied to your account after school is started . This is where you have the option to use your refund toward housing or keep it. Hope I helped 😭
Emma Joseph you did thank you! And I’m so sorry one more question. You said they will make one based off of your financial aid, so basically the rest of your loans could cover it?
simoneninah so when you get your financial aid which includes your loans it’s applied to your tuition. Whatever left over money you have you’ll get it in a refund to your bank account . You can take that money and apply it towards housing . Sometimes it might not b enough so you’ll have to come out of pocket .
I was number 17 and I got a room quickly! I needed up getting a bunk room but one of my roommates traded with me so I could have my own. They only do it on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s so look out for it.
I go to kennesaw state also and she is NOT lying at all!!
Forever Carolyn frfr the crowded library hit hard 😫
Housing isn’t included in any universities tuition. It’s separate everywhere. Also most universities require for you to buy a meal plan your first year and some also require for you to stay on campus first yr, so I guess that’s a good thing that you have options.
They do show out with the food the first month 🙄🙄 then after that..
Exactly!!! Imma go head and subscribe to your channel too boo
Emma Joseph thank you!!
thanks for this because there website really makes it seem like they have the best school/campus in the world and I needed some raw information even tho every college has its cons I would honestly like to pick a college that’s more social for my freshman year.
You got me stressing about how I’m gonna eat lmao. My roommate and I are gonna struggle ig 😂
Caitlin Fleming the food just start to get repetitive at times. And on the weekends ur only option is basically the dining hall 🙄
4,000 a semester!!! I’d rather rent my own apartment 💀and drive everyday☺️
I go to Kennesaw, and want to mention something about the studying/library part. What you said is ONLY particular to the Kennesaw Campus. As far the Kennesaw campus there is a lot of spaces to study. Bonus: it's super quite.
Not a hate comment, just want to acknowledge the other campus too :)
I'm in my fifties. I went to Syracuse University years ago and they were known for great parties. lol. Sooooo many people you saw the first year were gone the second year. I say that to say, sometimes our blessings are disguised.
to be fair, renting in the area is about 1k/month so 4k/semester housing + food is actually reasonable
u could find a apartment in the area and split the rent so itll be at most 500$.
Man I lived with my aunt when I was in college, rent free as long I as in school. Worked part time and got a little pell grant. Didn't miss out on much. Way cheaper!
def agree from the financial stand point but for me it wasnt a option for me sadly
I'm honestly so scared cuz I'm a high school senior and I really been wanting to go here for years, but financial problems ain't no joke. They can't be playing with money now🤦🏾
JILLIZA exactly ! but if you on them as soon as you graduate and start working them you’ll be good . they r frustrating tho
@@emmasrevenge777 Look THANK YOU SO MUCH❤ I hate that you had to deal with this AND bad wifi but I'm gonna need a job fo sho
JILLIZA yes ma’am but you’ll definitely find one on campus if you needed one . Lemme know if you have any questions
@@emmasrevenge777 absolutely🙏🏾 thank you so much
@@JillCheese Best Part about this . It will be dead quiet at night and I don't like being around people and the parties is exactly for me because, I don't like acting like a tramp. I'm just going to Study & Get my education and Leave
Damn after seeing this I really thought I wanted to go to KSU🙂but damn prolly not.
Jean-Edouard Jean-Gilles lol come so we can have a Haitian union 🤣🤣
Emma u really shouldn’t have posted that cause I wanted to go to KSU so bad😭😭😂. Now I know it’s not the move. And is there any Haitians there??
Jean-Edouard Jean-Gilles Im in a Caribbean club rn and it’s a lot
Emma Joseph Oh lawd😩no. ✌🏾Im sorry my Zoe but u gotta take one for da team

lmfao I gotta keep it 100
Good information, well presented.
Thank you so much I know its reasons not to go but I’m still going i’ve been wanting to go since I was a little kid so my hopes are not going downwards
Anne Flibbit honestly I think what people don’t realize is that every school has its downs. Overall kennesaw is a good school though. .
That’s not a lot considering what Georgia state makes you pay
This is exactly why I didn’t go to state
Girl you answered ALLLLLL my questions I had in my head. I’m a rising senior transferring from Savannah State, but I’m looking forward to the transition.
rosegotsoul thanks girl . I really feel like there’s not a lot of videos like this 🤧
Did you actually transfer from ssu last year?
Vanessa Kay yes I actually transferred from ssu to ksu
rosegotsoul okay do you have ig or twitter? dm me, both is @bluntvee ... I need some help and advice transferring from ssu.
Vanessa Kay yes. I added you on both and dm you on Twitter
I'm transferring from KSU to GA state. I felt like I waste my time, but I'm happy to leave. Hope you enjoy your stay at KSU.
Ga state was actaully my first choice. i hope you like it down there .
Did you like GSU or would you rather KSU now that you experienced first? Cause I’m coming from a HBCU so I’m tryna see which school to transfer too. Lol help.
Vanessa Kay good question, I was wondering the same thing

😳 financial aid don’t pay for housingggg, I’m thinking about transferring from savannah state but I might have to reconsider 😩
if you have a refund from kennesaw you can choose to use it towards housing but otherwise no ma'am .
Did you ever transfer?
i’m trying to transfer there so this video is so helpful!!
KSU I hear is very popular especially being an alum
Remember me this is my other account I was born at Kennesaw State University I lived their for 22 year since 2001 I am ashamed to be trapped at Kennesaw State university all the time but now I get good about it go owl
Who does your hair it’s sooo gorgeous and thank you for this video I was thinking about going here.
This girl on campus did my hair and provided the hair for me . If you DM me on insta I’ll give you her info . And definitely HMU if you have any questions
So your saying that the issues are like all other colleges?
Exactly
I’m not trying to be rude but if this school isn’t the right fit for you...have you considered transferring?
DAKARI I honestly haven’t considered transferring bc this school is alright ... I only made this video to let people know the real tea before they attend
Where did you get your hair from?
Will probably be going here next year so I wanted to get a sneak peak. What do you think of the Marietta Campus? I don’t know which campus to choose
Hi, I am going to KSU in the fall, and what I've noticed about the differences between campuses is that there are a lot more things to do on the Kennesaw campus than on the Marietta campus, also in my opinion I think the housing on the Kennesaw campus is better than the other
ur hair is so nice
Chanelle Marie thanks sis ❤️
Emma Joseph if u don’t mind me asking where’d u get it? the lace is MELTED
Kennesaw is best friend we are the closest ever I was born in Kennesaw state University I was taken care by Kennesaw I was born as owl I was born in Kennesaw, State, University
Thank you lol this low key helped
i got two brothers one went there and grad and one goes there so i got mad support
The Way She Said Redicalis
What if I have a presidential scholarship does that mean it’s still expensive
Ok so i have a car which has a note and i plan on transferring to KSU but i live in Gwinnett. I plan on pledging the semester i transfer so i really don’t want to commute but i also don’t want to come out if pocket a whole ton just to live on campus. I was looking a the apartments which don’t look too bad but in all i don’t know what to do. Can you give me some advice?

Another question if i did decide to stay a u pointe .. could they take the funds out of my financial aid ?
Breonah Gonzalez no . If you have money left from financial aid you’d get a refund . That refund goes into your bank account then you can choose to use it on rent
Pledging?
Wait.. so what if you play a sport or something and are a STEM major ?? Do you still have to dorm on the marietta campus ??
The Life of Alanna if you play sports I think u can get housing on kennesaw
I am going it's your opinion if you think that ok but I don't believe it at all I'm going still but thanks for telling us
Do y’all dorms have central air
Umm Naj yep 👍🏾
Saw her looking down at her points
She is fair!
the way this was my top choice of schooling now idk wtf to do. should i even go?
i def think u should go bc the academics and resources are there . i think this school is a great university , just at times it is very unorganized and expensive in a sense for on campus housing and the meal plan
Emma Joseph thank you! out of curiosity do you know anything abt the sororities there?
Welp never mind then 😭
Do you all have a payment plan for housing? And is your financial aid and housing bill separate? Do you have to pay for them at the same time?
simoneninah yea so when u get your bill from kennesaw , it’ll only have your tuition and meal plan costs on there . When you are ready to pay for your housing you have to go onto the housing portal, and that is where you make your payment .

You can take that money and apply it towards housing . Sometimes it might not b enough so you’ll have to come out of pocket .
I’m number 62 on the female housing waitlist do you think I will get a room?
Brianna Paige I think u will but it might b a few days into the semester bc that’s when ppl fold and end up can’t paying .
I was number 17 and I got a room quickly! I needed up getting a bunk room but one of my roommates traded with me so I could have my own. They only do it on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s so look out for it.
Girllll now I dont want to go
Every school has cons tbh I just want everyone to know the good and bad ☺️
wait , your parents can’t pay the housing bill for you ?!?!
andimsydnie yea they can but they gotta upload it into your account .
dang ok , thanks !
Which campus are you referring to? I want to send my son to KSU and I think it will be the Marietta campus (college of engineering)
I was referring to predominantly the Kennesaw campus but I have attended class on the Marietta as well
Do they have better wifi now?
iamroxii no ma’am 😣
Emma Joseph really ? not even a lil bit? 😭
Scalp hunny scalp
I won’t be going here Thankyou for tell I’m me
this video is very negative. I love KSU very, very much. The food is above average for any other college in GA.
Which campus is this?
The Honey Special main campus -kennesaw
Wait so individually you pay 4100 a semester or as a group of four people you split 4100 a semester
each individual person pays that amount
Emma Joseph Marietta campus you pay $2800 for a semester all at once..... (before final payment deadline) this for a 2 bed 2 bath and one roommate
Bryce Miller there is no on campus housing that cheap on Marietta unless they’re in Howell . I live on Marietta rn and pay 3900$ .
Emma Joseph my apologies $3800*
👌🏾
But Kennesaw isn't even a state?!
Went to ksu then told people you from kansas state 😂😂😂😂
Now I see why girls be making onlyfans😭💀
