Important: Basic Skills Requirement Update
On June 28, 2024, Governor Murphy signed a law that states students no longer will be required to complete a basic reading, writing, and mathematics testing requirement for admission into a teacher preparation program. This law will become effective on January 1, 2025. The logistical details regarding this change will need to be worked out here at the university, but we wanted to let you know as soon as possible that this law means Montclair State University will not require the basic skills requirement for undergraduate, postBA, or MAT candidates currently applying for admissions into the Teacher Education Program for Spring 2025.
Please note that Teacher Education Program candidates still will be required to complete all required Praxis subject assessment tests prior to the Clinical Year, as well as any other required tests in their certification area. See below for those testing requirements.
