Code doesn't go through when inputting a number when prompted

Question

I'm a beginner to Java, the code is for a homework assignment regarding files and loops. When I to run this code to check for any errors, when hitting a number, it doesn't go forward past the menu. However, if I hit 5, it then start's with the choice that's meant for 1. I'm not exactly sure what's happening that's resulting in the error.

I did try to switch the code to a switch method instead of a while loop, but that resulted in just the code not moving forward regardless of what option was selected. I also tried moving scanners around but that didn't also effect it.

The following is the code for reference

Import java.util.Scanner; 
import java.io.*;


public class Homework3A {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
    { 
        
        //Homework3A
        //Lance Torres, completed on DATE
        
                
        Scanner userInput = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("1. Add student\n"
                + "2. Add course \n"
                + "3. Display student\n"
                + "4. Display Course.\n"
                + "5. Exit"); //the message that will display to start the menu 
         
        int menuChoice = userInput.nextInt(); //changing the scanner type into a int type for the menu loop 
        //will be using a while loop for this since it is a loop i am more familiar with when typing menus 
        PrintWriter StudentOPFile = new PrintWriter("Students.txt");
        PrintWriter CoursesOPFile = new PrintWriter("Courses.txt"); 
        while (menuChoice != 5); //this loop will keep happening until the user hits the int 5  
        { 
            if (menuChoice == 1); //for adding a student 
            {

                int studentID = studentInput.nextInt();
                //the system message and the string that will collect the user ID 
                
                System.out.println("Please enter the Student's first name: "); 
                String firstName = studentInput.nextLine(); 
                //code above is for when the user enters the first name of the student
