My daughter is a Junior and interested in Psychology with a concentration in Music Therapy. She would like to be close to a large city. We are looking at Montclair. Can anyone share their experience? When I looked at a Website, it said 30% of freshman live on campus. Is it a commuter college. Thank you
Yes it is (commuter).
Relatively easy to get into.
I commute to Montclair 4 days a week and this university is known for its high % of commuter students. So far, it’s the best campus I ever been to. Just advise for her, she will need to allow some extra time for herself to reach college on time. Mostly the moring traffic isn’t great from 80 east. There are multiple parking places and garage, whoever gets first to the closest parking lot it’s theirs. Good Luck!
My son lives there its a pretty big school so if 30 percent commute there are still 10k kids on campus. He hasnt complained of being bored yet
