How do I enroll?
Enrolling your device in Okta only takes a few steps. Visit https:/myapps.kean.edu to begin the enrollment process, we suggest using a device other than your mobile phone as you will need to download the Okta Verify and scan a QR code during this process. You'll be greeted with a sign-in page and will need to enter your Kean username (Kean Email ID) and password.
If you have any issues with the sign-up process, please contact the IT Help Desk at 908-737-6000.
After you have logged in, you will be prompted to set up your mobile device as your second authentication factor using Okta Verify.
NOTE: if you are using Okta Verify and you get a new mobile device, you MUST call the IT Help Desk (908-737-6000) to have them clear those factors so that you can do a fresh setup of the app/s on your new phone.
Set up multifactor authentication using:
After you've enrolled your device you will need to choose a security image on the enrollment webpage you began the process from.
Click the security image you'd like to use and then select "Create My Account". You have now successfully set up your Okta account!
