- So far my experrience with faculty had been great, and the activities around campus and the facilites provided like the gym and ice skating rink which are free of cost for students is the best.
Dislikes
- Montclair and the surrounding area is on the pricey end of New Jersey and commuting from other places like Jersey city or Edison cost a bit, and the accomodation provided is good, but it is also costly

- Data science graduates are expected to receive a salary between $40k - $120k per yr
- The university is in tie with a jobsite called Handshake, and I also use LinkedIn and subscribe to the job alerts of the companies I follow.

Likes
- The Curriculum flexibility, depth is really awesome
- Equal importance to extra curricular activities and studies
- Cool professors and their efforts in explaining concepts
Dislikes
- There were very limited funds for hiring students for part times
- University mainly runs on federal funds
- The more importance to undergrad students unlike master students
Campus Life
- Each department has its own campus, which is huge and vast with ample amount of space available. All facilities, whatever we can name, are available on the campus and students would be overwhelmed.
- There were many events that were popular, as they celebrated all the special days irrespective of the student's nationality.
Accommodation
- Zillow and apartments.com are the websites where you can find the accommodations for the location you need. Mainly lease signing and location fixing would be major issues. You can also join the WhatsApp groups or Facebook groups of the university and find accommodations. Search for seniors from your university and get into their accommodations that would help you most.

Accommodation
I commute so I do not live on campus. Living on campus would cost too much and since my home is only a 30-minute drive away, it made sense for me to just commute. Also if I were to live on campus I would need to pay for a meal plan which is expensive.
My girlfriend recommended it to me for their psychology program. And since it's a state college, the tuition was not as expensive compared to out of state colleges. The distance also played a role, it is not far from my home. There is even a bus that goes there from port authority in New York. Being a commuter, this played a big role into choosing this college.
