Virtual Admissions – The Graduate School

In an attempt to alleviate stress for prospective students at this time, The Graduate School at Montclair State is being flexible with access to the Admissions team and is creating Virtual experiences for accessing information.

“We have an exciting slate of virtual graduate program information sessions scheduled, and will be expanding our offerings in the weeks to come. Additionally, prospective students have the ability to directly schedule a one-on-one virtual appointment with an Admissions Recruiter at their convenience,” says Bryan Moschel, director of Admissions and Operations, The Graduate School  “We’re looking forward to continuing to serve prospective students in new and creative ways.”

At Graduate Admissions, critical information is already online and easy to access remotely for prospective applicants and students:

• A Resource Page provides prospective students and applicants with regular updates about what they can expect from The Graduate School at this time.
• Admissions Recruiters are available to meet via email, phone or web conferencing regarding graduate programs or the application process. Schedule a meeting with an Admissions Recruiter at gradschool@montclair.edu.
• Applicants with canceled or rescheduled testing dates for the GRE, GMAT, PRAXIS, TOEFL or IELTS exam can receive one-on-one advice on how to expedite their application by calling 973-655-5147 to speak with an Admissions Counselor.
