Located along New Jersey's northern coastline, Monmouth University offers a welcoming and dynamic student development setting. Innovative academic programs, individual faculty attention, and nationally ranked Division I athletics make our private university a great place to find your future.
Monmouth's beautiful coastal campus sits at the heart of a vibrant culture rich in history, the arts, technology, and entrepreneurship. Just one hour from New York and Philadelphia, we take pride in preparing students to succeed in life after Monmouth. Our renowned faculty are actively involved in advancing academic research nationwide while encouraging meaningful community involvement and critical thinking for self-fulfillment.
Our commitment to transformative learning is founded on three core principles: an intellectually challenging and rigorous academic experience built on a strong foundation in the liberal arts learning experiences that are both immersive and extend beyond the classroom and prepare for life after Monmouth. To enhance the breadth and impact of our commitment, we offer a high level of personalization for each student, infusing the Monmouth Experience throughout every aspect of campus life.
Our signature programming extends from undergraduate studies to graduate programs and preparatory experiences for career advancement outside of the classroom. We ensure that our students' career support, from undergraduate research opportunities to graduate faculty mentorship, is embedded in the curriculum and tailored to fit individual objectives. Our alumni have the preparation, relationships, and insight needed to thrive throughout their lives.
Together, these principles are the critical components of a Monmouth education. This is what shapes our identity and distinguishes the university from any other. Most of all, these are the indispensable ingredients for how we prepare young men and women for the lives ahead of them.
At Monmouth University, everyone and everything is on the rise. Working closely with distinguished faculty, students get the attention and support they need to prepare for the road ahead. This robust and personalized education continues to lead students to successful careers and further academic pursuits.
That is why every year, students choose Monmouth from a variety of top private universities and east coast universities. Monmouth attracts students from around the U.S. with a concentration in the northeast. Our diverse student body consists of approximately 6,300 students – 4,600 undergrads and 1,700 grads. We are large enough to have dozens of majors and degree programs and a breadth of student resources, yet we are still small enough to boast low faculty-to-student ratios.
Our recent distinctions and accolades highlight how the university is enhancing its academic reputation. Monmouth University has staked a place among the top private universities, from athletics to clubs, fraternity and sorority life, to social gatherings and multicultural activities.
Even our campus is evolving. With new academic buildings and residence halls, Monmouth provides new students with rewarding and meaningful college experience.
There are many types of financial aid for university students, and many factors are considered, so we encourage students to explore the breadth of our resources. Monmouth partners with students to develop a plan to manage university tuition and fees and other educational expenses, taking into account their financial situation.
Monmouth University is committed to advancing diversity and inclusion efforts that ensure everyone on our campus feels welcome and supported. We are guided by our core values that embrace diversity, integrity, a caring campus, and excellence in teaching and learning.
Monmouth University is singularly positioned to offer an academic experience that delivers a strong liberal arts foundation, helping shape young minds by challenging them to think critically and exposing them to curricula that enhance their cultural and global literacy. Given our size and position as a primarily residential university, Monmouth shares many of the positive characteristics of larger research institutions, including a comprehensive array of career-specific program offerings.
Our faculty is committed to providing thoughtful, challenging, well-taught courses in general and specialized curricula. That helps nurture and support each student's intellectual passions and prepares one for life after Monmouth. Hallmarks of Monmouth academics include immersive experiences beyond the classroom and meaningful student-faculty relationships.
At Monmouth University, leaders look forward right from the very beginning. Whether it is changing the world for the better or transforming your future, our students use Experiential Education to bring knowledge to life. It is what we do every day.
The mission of Career Services is to be a comprehensive resource center for students and alumni, providing the appropriate services and information that will assist them in successfully meeting their career objectives to provide students and alumni with information, strategies, and skills necessary for their career development and to provide mutually beneficial links between students and employers.
The Division of Student Life provides a wide range of services to Monmouth students and their families, ensuring a rich and fulfilling student experience. Our Division is also committed to providing members of the local community with opportunities to get involved in cultural, educational, and recreational programs.
The offices within our Division provide students with various educational and leadership opportunities, and we encourage all students to take advantage of these meaningful opportunities. Students can spend most of their time here by breaking out of their comfort zone and exploring new ideas and experiences.
Monmouth University is also a place that emphasizes respect – for yourself and those around you. This message begins at New Student Orientation and is carried through until graduation. At Monmouth, we are all members of one community, and it is our responsibility to care for one another.
