[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Montclair State. New Jersey public university. They grant in-state tuition to qualifying out-of-state students, so it's worth a look for local DMV students who might be happy at a mid-tier regional public. Definitely not a "top" school by any means -- but a very good value for certain majors, e.g. education & nursing.

I'd especially consider it for students who are eager to break into NYC's theater or entertainment industries. Those aren't degrees I would pay a lot for: I'd put more stock in industry experience, so proximity to NYC is great. (It's a 30-minute train ride.) Faculty are well connected bc Montclair is basically a tony NYC suburb and many Broadway and tv execs live there (Stephen Colbert is the famous example)  -- and have connected with the school. Anyway the College of the Arts is decent enough that a go-getter will have no trouble finding great NYC internships.

Also good for comms: Sony built their brand-new communications building, which is better than anything we have in the DMV.

def a "budget" option (full freight OOS is like 20k) [/quote]
