Housing: Though not required, Pathway students are strongly encouraged to live on campus. Research shows that students who live on campus in the first and second years perform better. The total cost of room and board will be added to the fall bill. Pathway students are able to live in the same campus residential spaces as other first-year students.
Varsity athletics: NCAA rules prohibit non-matriculated students from participating in varsity sports. Pathway students can, however, participate in the many intramural and club sports at the college. They are eligible to participate in varsity athletics upon matriculation.
Clubs and organizations: TCNJ encourages all students to get involved with the Lions community. There are a few exceptions: Pathway students are not able to join the Student Finance Board, be Student Government Association representatives, or hold leadership positions in campus organizations. These options become available without restrictions to all Pathway students once they matriculate.
