I enjoyed Montclair State University because of its diverse student body, extracurricular activities, proximity to NYC, and its extensive course catalog. I dormed while living there and thought the housing was nice. The one downside is that since it’s a commuter school, a lot of people left on the weekends. The university is located next to a busy highway and is away from the restaurant row of Montclair, so it was hard to socialize out on the town.
