Monmouth University is a small, private university in West Long Branch, New Jersey, known for strong programs in business, nursing, communication, psychology, and the liberal arts on a 147‑acre campus about 50 miles from New York City. Students often rave about the beautiful, near‑the‑beach setting, small class sizes, active campus life with many clubs and events, and a strong sense of community fostered by Division I athletics and a very residential campus.

business administration, nursing, communication, psychology
"I love Monmouth’s small‑college‑by‑the‑ocean vibe, how easy it is to get involved in clubs, housing events, and a big‑feel‑D1 campus, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the sometimes‑vacant‑on‑weekends quiet, the split between commuters and residents, and the way the ocean‑town off‑campus scene can feel thin were all more noticeable once I stopped just visiting and started living there."
