<p>Fredom, MSU is only 12 miles west of Manhattan. There is a train station right on campus. Buses are another option & will bring you right in to Port Authority. Even a cab if you want to spend the cash. If the schedule allows, it would be great to take advantage of the school's proximity.</p>
<p>Freedom -- Yes, Montclair is only 12 miles from Manhattan. There is a train that stops right on campus -- but it's more like a 30-minute ride, as it makes other stops. The dance audition is NOT individual -- they do it in groups. And as far as I know, auditions are usually done on Saturdays. They have plenty of dates, but I don't know whether they co-ordinate with the Unifieds.</p>
<p>I saw your post for 2007 on housing situation in Montclair. My son is thinking of applying there in 2010. How did your student make out?</p>
