Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Montclair State University is not the first choice for a lot of people. Some students choose the University for its education program, the proximity to their hometown, or the chance to play a sport, but others come because they can't afford anything else or they got in here and not many other places. In the end, though, Montclair offers a good education at a great price.

While any college can only prepare a student as much as they are willing to work, Montclair isn't lacking in its offerings. Many of the programs are very good, and there are opportunities that MSU offers to build upon what is offered in the classroom. Some majors require cooperative education, while all others make it available and help students find internships for the semester or break. Besides that, there are opportunities to do research, go abroad, and participate in organizations that give real world experience. Yes, some students coast through MSU and leave unprepared for any type of job by the time they get their degree, but other students also work hard and are ready to get a good job at the end of four years. The only downside is that many times your classmates will not challenge you, so to do very well, a student has to motivate and compete against themselves and the system. Overall, MSU is a good school, but it isn't outstanding. Perhaps the most unique fact is that it offers a quality education at a relatively low price.

Excellent Advice and Assistance

Upon entering the Financial Aid office, there is a round table with scholarships applications available for viewing. I asked an officer if he could assist me with logging into my fafsa account on the web. He was very knowledgeable and it only took me approximately 15 minutes to proccess the application. It made my experience very relaxed. i did not have to wait long because there were many staff members at that time.

Admissions to a Major

Upon applying for the re-entrance at Montclair State University, I was given some assistance from several employees. One at which made it very simple. The Director of the Admissions office came to assist me with the process since another assistant was not patient with me. I was accepted to the Nutrition Major with pleasure after writing an essay to elaborate on my plans for the future.

School Spirit & Facility

Although I have not participated in the athletics aspect of my University, I have noticed that the football / soccer field is in mint condition. The facility has high regard for their equiptment and teams. The spirit of the students is very supportive of their teams of interest. The students always have sales and are very excited to go to the games. The swimming pools are exceptional. Its an opportunity that I look forward to engaging in. The beauty of the facilites are inviting and friendly in color. I will bring my children to their games and attract them to college and the athletics department.
