Montclair State University To Launch Realigned Academic Calendar In 2025

Press release from Montclair State University:

Beginning in January 2025, Montclair State University will revamp its academic calendar to enhance the student experience by creating year-round access to the educational resources of a comprehensive public research institution.

Montclair will move to a three-term model – with a full term in the summer in addition to traditional spring and fall terms – to increase flexible learning options and ensure each student has an optimal path to completing a degree.

“To meet students where they are and become a 21st-century higher education institution, we must create as many pathways to earn a degree as possible,” says Montclair President Jonathan Koppell. “The new three-term model allows us to be nimble and creative. We can offer courses in multiple modalities and ultimately provide year-round options for students to access all University resources, allowing them to complete their studies in as optimal a manner as possible. So this change is another expression of our commitment to eliminate the typical barriers to earning a degree.”
