About This School
Derech Hachaim Seminary is a private nonprofit institution located in Monroe, New York with approximately 285 undergraduate students enrolled. Derech Hachaim Seminary has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 93%. The average net price after financial aid is $8,253 per year.
Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable, close-knit religious seminary experience — at just $8,253/year average net price, the cost is genuinely low compared to most private institutions. The 93% acceptance rate means admission is not competitive, which may reflect either an open-enrollment philosophy or limited selectivity, so prospective students should visit and ask hard questions about academic rigor and outcomes. With only 285 students, you'll get a small-community feel, but research post-graduation pathways carefully before enrolling.
