It is a member of the New Jersey Association of Independent Schools, the Council of Islamic Schools of North America, the Islamic Schools League of America, and the New Jersey League of Islamic Schools (co-founded by NUI School). The school is located on the premises of the Islamic Society of Central Jersey (ISCJ) in the suburban community of South Brunswick in Middlesex County, New Jersey, United States, about midway between New York and Philadelphia. Established in 1993, NUI is in its 25th year of operation. The classroom facilities for Pre-K through twelfth grade students are located in a contemporarily designed school building which opened to students in two phases, September 2012 and September 2014. In addition to classroom facilities, the school has a computer lab, library, biology/chemistry lab, physics lab, and an art/home economics room. NUI is looking forward to building Phase III of the permanent school structure, which will provide additional classrooms, a cafetorium, and a gymnasium. NUI also offers a daycare on premises. The NUI Daycare is open to all children of any faith and accepts children from three months to three years of age on a full-time or part-time basis. HistoryThe school started its operation in about 1993 on the premises of Islamic Society of Central Jersey. In 2009 it started the expansion project on the {{convert|17|acres|adj=on}} site.[1] The first phase of the school was completed in the summer of 2012. FacultyNUI students are instructed by 69 full-time and part-time faculty members allowing for the advantages of a low student/teacher ratio. In addition to the faculty members who have bachelor's degrees in their fields, twenty have master's degrees and one has a Juris doctorate. NUI faculty members have an average of ten and one half years of teaching experience. All of the foreign language faculty members are native speakers of the language they teach. Several of the high school faculty members have published papers and/or books and many faculty members throughout the school have led workshops in their areas of expertise. StudentsAs of the 2015-16 school year, the school had an enrollment of 522 students (plus 74 in PreK) and 56.1 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 9.3:1. The school's student body was 61.7% Asian, 29.3% White, 1.9% Hispanic, 1.0% Black and 6.1% two or more races.[4] The NUI student body is very diverse. Students come from a variety of cultural and economic backgrounds. The majority of the students are bilingual, and some are trilingual. This diversity of the NUI student body gives the students a greater perspective on cultural traditions as well as religious understanding. In the previous thirteen years, NUI has graduated a total of 204 students. Of those students:
