Located just minutes west of New York City, Montclair State University offers a terrific scholarly environment in the northern New Jersey suburbs. Many of the most highly-ranked programs at Montclair State are part of the College of the Arts and the College of Education and Human Services. Multiple NJ Transit rail service stops near campus allow you to explore the surrounding area easily without a personal vehicle. The area surrounding the main campus is mostly filled with residential neighborhoods, so there are lots of convenient options when it comes to finding a rental house or apartment nearby. If you plan on making your daily commute on foot, you’ll want to consider where on campus you’ll be spending the most time: Most of the major classrooms are clustered near the center, and the main administration building is located on the southeast corner.
