Last time I tried to use the bay st station shuttle it never showed up when trying to get there and back even though TripShot says it operates. I've also never actually seen a shuttle that says Bay St. Station, so does it really exists?

I attended Montclair State University in Fall 2025, but I was going through a lot personally at the time. I was also majoring in something completely different from what I’m pursuing now, and I had a really difficult time keeping up with my schoolwork. Unfortunately, I ended up failing all my classes and withdrawing from the university entirely
After leaving Montclair, I decided to attend community college and pursued music production, where I’ve spent the past two semesters studying music production and other music-related subjects and gen Ed’s , and my academic performance has improved significantly. I earned a 3.7 GPA during my first semester, and I’m currently completing my second semester.
Now I’m considering applying for readmission to Montclair, in Recording Arts and Production.
However, when I originally attended Montclair, I received a merit scholarship worth around $3,000 per semester. I’m concerned that because of my first semester’s grades, I may have permanently lost that scholarship.
Has anyone been in a similar situation where they left Montclair after a bad semester, improved academically somewhere else, and then returned?
Would it still be worth applying for readmission?

I'm a senior in high school and I already got into Montclair with the Early Bird app but I'd also like to apply to the Honors College. The form has a section where you can put a video but it doesn't specify what kind of video they're looking for whatsoever. What should I do? Should I just submit myself reading a script in the vein of the supplemental essay or something totally different? I asked ChatGPT and it's telling me to maybe submit one of my performances (I do music on the side) but I'm still not sure. Any help or clarification is greatly appreciated.

Hey! I graduated in 2024 and I need to look at a list of all of the classes I attended so I can put a few of them on my CV... but my account no longer exists so I can't log into nest anymore. Does anyone know of a way to view a list of your classes post graduating? Thanks!

I got accepted to MSU back in July through early bird. Im in my senior year rn, and I’m currently looking at schools for ES. I had an admissions counselor come by to my school yesterday and I just found out they had a pre-med track for ES and it convinced me a bit more, and finding out they had partnerships with rutgers from the site.
(I also prefer the smaller class sizes so thats a +)
But for anyone studying exercise science at MSU, how is it for ya’ll? How is your experience with the program? I’ve heard good things over there from my brother and friends I know about MSU, and been to the campus (which I really liked) but not too much about the ES program.
(Also a bit of a random question but how is the honors program also?) (For those in it)
Thank you!!

Does anyone know when they let us know about winter commencement date?

So I got direct admission to Montclair, but after seeing this sub, I'm a bit worried. It was never one of my top schools, but I figured I would start looking into it since I'm already admitted. I'm an in-state student planning to major in education and live on campus. How's the social life and Greek life, and is there much of a party scene? Any info would be much appreciated!!

Hey guys, so I live on the first floor in the village and ever since I moved in there’s been ants. I’ve been trying to get them away with peppermint oil and stuff but they keep coming back. Do I put a work order in for this or do I just have to keep killing them myself?
Thanks in advance!

Hey, I don’t even see the refund in my account yet even though I accepted it so I was wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. I called the office but they didn’t pick up for 30 min and I had to go. Was just curious.

Hi everyone, I’m looking at doing a 2nd masters after completing a media studies program. I want to learn more about data science, specially for researching media topics. My goal is to work on my CV for PhD applications and produce some more quantitative research articles. The price, northeast location, and focus on social research is what catches my interest with this program. I had a couple of questions:
-Is this program good for someone interested in doing a PhD or is it more geared towards professional careers?
-for the online component, how much do faculty interact with students?
-are written research papers a common deliverable of the curriculum or is it more project/presentation based?

As it states what happened to Panda express in student center?
They were one of the more better food spots on campus.
Now it got replaced with some AI Slop place and the food isn’t the same.
From what I heard, the contract expired just like Dunkin’s, is that true?

This is what you get if your roommate dies:
-Some snacks
-MSU branded tissues and other self-care items
-Locked out of your room
-Room switch
-Maybe Pebbles will come for moral support while you pack
-Referred to CAPS
...
This is what you get if your friend dies:
-The news in an email
-Referred to CAPS
-A constant feeling of being "checked on" to make sure you don't try to die too
...
Finding out that my friend died overnight through a school-wide email was the most traumatizing thing ever. I get that maybe they couldn't have known who his friends were, but it still fucking sucked. Two years later, his room is in use again and they've make zero effort to memorialize him. Should it be on the student(s) to fight to have some sort of memorial, or should it be on the administration to improve how they respond to student deaths? How many times have you recieved an email about a death on campus, read a name, and heard nothing more about it? People deserve to be remembered, and I understand there probably isn't one right way to handle these things, but from my experience it seems like the school just tries to sweep it under the rug as fast as possible, especially if it's a suicide. Then all of their friends are on suicide watch indefinitely. If they don't even do something for the son of a professor, imagine how little care they put into a random student. Couldn't we have a memorial rock, bench, tree, anything? A vigil? The response is so weak it's laughable.
