Graduate students get a good return on their investment at Montclair State University, an 鈥渁ffordable鈥 public school with an 鈥渦p-and-coming business program鈥 near New York City. Having recently reworked their graduate curriculum, Montclair 鈥檚 Feliciano School of Business offers several distinct MBA options on its New Jersey campus: an evening program, an Executive MBA and a Hybrid Saturday MBA. For all three programs, the school has introduced a 鈥渞edesigned cohort-based MBA,鈥 through which students complete a comprehensive core curriculum in tandem with a small group of classmates. The structure encourages greater interaction and networking between MBA candidates鈥攁 huge asset to the experience, given that 鈥渇ellow students are competent, pleasant to work with, and provide an engaging atmosphere in the classroom.鈥 A new online MBA is offered beginning in Fall 2016.

Beyond classroom instruction, the Montclair MBA curriculum provides a 鈥渃omplete educational experience,鈥 from the ongoing executive speaker series to the 鈥渇oundations toolbox,鈥 an online resource to help students prepare for the MBA. For a global perspective, students participate in a nine to ten day 鈥渋nternational [study] trip,鈥 an intensive course taught overseas, which focuses on the political and cultural aspects of global business. While the program offers a range of excellent resources, prospective students should carefully review the course offerings before enrolling, to ensure a cohort structured program is the correct fit for them. On the whole, 鈥渢he administration for the MBA has been very receptive to students.鈥 Whenever a problem arises, 鈥渢he MBA office is very quick in their responses and follow up.鈥

Thanks to the small class size, 鈥測ou do not get lost in the crowd鈥 at Montclair, and 鈥渢he professors do seem to offer a lot of assistance outside of class.鈥 The majority of the 鈥減rofessors are outstanding,鈥 though students admit that while there are 鈥渞ock stars,鈥 a few professors can be lacking. In particular, finance and accounting professors get good marks from students, and 鈥渢he economics professors are above average.鈥 Essential to working adults, practical education is a focus in the coursework; in the classroom, professors 鈥渦se their real life experiences to teach us and get us up to date.鈥
