Is Yeshiva Yesodei Hatorah Worth It?

I don't have enough grounded data to write an honest ROI analysis of this school, and several parts of the request can't be met from what's provided. Let me flag the specific gaps before drafting anything: - No program or major data is listed. The prompt asks which majors pay off and which don't, but there are no program-level salary lines in the data context. I can't invent them. - No earnings or salary figures appear anywhere in the data. Without any post-graduation earnings, I can't assess whether the financial return is strong, weak, or mixed in a factual way. - No regional job market data is provided. Here is what I can write, grounded strictly in the figures given (net price, graduation rate, retention rate, Pell rate, and net price by income tier).

The number that should stop you is the 7.40% graduation rate. At a net price of $9,429 a year, the cost is low for a private four-year school, but the odds you finish are very poor. A retention rate of 65.22% tells the same story: about a third of students don't return after the first year. Cheap tuition means little if you leave without a degree.

The net price tiers are close to flat across income, which is unusual. If your family earns under $30k, you pay $9,292. if you earn between $48k and $75k, you actually pay less, at $7,341. and above $110k you pay $11,351. The gap between the lowest and highest tiers is about $2,000. Lower-income families here do not get the steep discounts you'd see at schools with large aid budgets, so the price is real and consistent no matter what you make.

The Pell rate of 38.81% shows a meaningful share of students come from lower-income households, but it says nothing about earnings after graduation, and the data gives no salary figures.

Without any program-level or earnings data, no honest claim can be made about which majors pay off or what you'll earn. The single strongest financial signal available is completion risk, and on that measure this school carries heavy risk: most students who enroll do not graduate.

If you can share the program salary tables and earnings data referenced in the prompt, I'll rewrite this with the major-by-major analysis you asked for.
