Cost Overview
Families at this Orthodox Jewish yeshiva pay far less than the $21,000 sticker price. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $7,673 per year, while those from families making $48,000-$75,000 pay $10,787 annually. With 77.65% of students receiving financial aid and the same percentage qualifying for Pell Grants, most families get significant help. Over four years, total costs range from about $30,700 to $43,100 depending on family income.
The school operates differently from typical colleges. All 169 students are men studying in a traditional yeshiva setting, and everyone comes from New York. Room and board costs just $6,000, keeping living expenses low in expensive Brooklyn. The 96.36% retention rate shows students stay despite the extremely low graduation rates of 12.30% over six years. Students from low-income Orthodox families get the best financial deal, often paying less than $8,000 per year for religious education and housing.
