Important Notes About Your Bill

• Review the Montclair State University Financial Responsibility Agreement.
• This bill shows your financial aid (as of now) that may be applied to your account and the resulting net amount that will be due.
• Any adjustments to your fall 2022 schedule (e.g. adding or dropping courses, changing housing or your meal plan), may affect your bill. If you maintain 12-18 credits the flat rate cost for tuition and fees for undergraduate students will not change.
• Recent Parent PLUS or private loan applications may not be reflected in the estimated aid amount on this bill.
• Students are billed on a semester basis (fall, winter, spring and summer). Montclair State University reserves the right to change tuition, fees, health insurance premium and room and board every academic year.
• Note for freshmen beginning this summer or fall: If your bill states that you are registered part-time or states that there is no bill because you do not yet have a class schedule, please contact your academic college’s success center for support:
  • College of the Arts
  • College of Education and Human Services
  • College of Humanities and Social Sciences
  • College of Science and Mathematics
  • School of Business
  • School of Nursing
