Cost Overview

Families earning under $30,000 pay just $12,204 annually after aid, while those making $30,000-$48,000 pay $17,125. The college's $21,850 tuition applies equally to all students since this Orthodox institution draws exclusively from New York. Over four years, the lowest-income families face roughly $49,000 in total costs.

The $2,700 room and board reflects the college's modest housing capacity of just 35 beds for 233 students. Most students live off-campus in Brooklyn's Orthodox communities. With 80% of students receiving Pell Grants, this serves predominantly low-income families seeking rabbinic education. The trimester calendar system allows for intensive religious study throughout the year.

Students from families earning under $30,000 get the best financial deal here. The combination of federal aid and the college's focus on affordability makes rabbinic training accessible to working-class Orthodox families.
