Montclair State University remains committed to making education affordable for all international students, regardless of their country of origin. As a public institution, we cannot administer need-based financial aid to international students. Unless awarded a merit-based scholarship or assistantship, international students must plan to pay the entire cost of attending Montclair State University. International students on F-1 status will be charged out-of-state tuition. These estimates are based on one academic year (18 credits for graduate students, 24-36 credits for undergraduate students).<\/p>\n
