Bloomfield has a history of intercollegiate sports, including basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, bowling, cross-country, track and field, and volleyball. Historical descriptions of Bloomfield teams should not be taken as confirmation that each team currently recruits or competes under the same affiliation after the merger.
Montclair State also has university-wide varsity athletics and recreation, which are different participation routes. A prospective athlete should verify the current team roster, competition status, campus location and eligibility rules for a specific sport. Students interested primarily in activity rather than varsity competition can look separately at available club, intramural and fitness options.
Bloomfield students have had opportunities to join performing, cultural and Greek-letter groups. Reported examples include a Cheer Team, Gospel Choir, Team Infinite, Zeta Phi Beta and Lambda Tau Omega Sorority, Inc. A group's appearance in a past directory does not establish that it is active or recruiting in the present semester.
Students can also explore organizations recognized across Montclair State, while checking where and when a group meets. For commuters, meeting time can matter as much as the organization's subject; for Bloomfield residents, activities at the main Montclair campus may involve additional travel.
Bloomfield's reported enrollment was 799 students, giving it a much smaller campus population than Montclair State University as a whole. The reported student-to-faculty ratio was 12 to 1. That ratio is an institutional measure, not a class-size limit.
Among reported new entrants, 175 were first-time degree-seeking students and 73 were transfer-in students. Most students were from New Jersey: the reported share was 89%, compared with 8% from other U.S. states. Reported enrollment included substantial numbers of Black and Hispanic students, but demographic counts do not describe any individual student's experience.
Students ages 18 through 24 made up the largest reported age groups, while adults 25 and older were also enrolled. Because campus-level figures may reflect a different reporting period from current university-wide enrollment, applicants should keep Bloomfield and Montclair State totals separate when comparing schools.
Everyday life at Bloomfield combines a residential campus with a substantial commuter population. In the reported figures, 28% of students lived on campus and 69% commuted. Class schedules, meeting times and transportation therefore affect how easily students can take part in activities outside class.
Reported campus resources include personal or psychological counseling and a health clinic, alongside arts activities such as theater and student media. Students may also use applicable Montclair State services and programming, although the location of an appointment or event matters when planning a day at Bloomfield. Orientation and academic advising are especially useful points for establishing which services are available locally and which require a trip to Montclair.
The Bloomfield College Library is the Bloomfield campus's named academic library. As part of Montclair State, Bloomfield students should also check their access to university-wide research databases, electronic journals and librarian assistance, including resources they can use away from campus.
Library access is not identical to round-the-clock study access: reported Bloomfield library information did not indicate a 24-hour study area. Students who need a particular collection, technology, quiet workspace or research appointment should check its location and current hours, especially when a course or instructor refers them to a resource at the Montclair campus.
