Will. Power.
Join us for upcoming virtual events!
Set on 370 wooded acres in Wayne, Haledon, and North Haledon, New Jersey, the campus is just three miles from the historic Great Falls in Paterson yet just 20 miles from the rich cultural, artistic, and commercial life of New York City.
While our campus is temporarily closed to visitors, you can still explore all that William Paterson University has to offer right from home.
Attend an upcoming virtual event to learn more about us, ask questions, and connect with future Pioneers. Check out our full range of virtual options or connect with us any time by text, live chat or on social media. Click here to register for an upcoming event!

Through the generosity of William Paterson’s Student Research and Creative Expression Program, I received funds to work with the Dagara Music Center in Ghana, where I learned traditional music and dance from local instructors and performers, and became exposed to different styles of both teaching and learning music. For my thesis, I am studying how singing can positively impact communities around the world, and this trip allowed me to obtain valuable research. The experience has helped me grow as a musician, student, and individual. Brenna Moran ’22Classical Music Performance
