About This School
Hebrew Theological College is a private nonprofit institution located in Skokie, Illinois with approximately 81 undergraduate students enrolled. Hebrew Theological College has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 92%. The average net price after financial aid is $11,197 per year. The graduation rate is 73%, and the typical graduate earns $26,700 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the 100% freshman retention rate and very low average net price of $11,197/year signal that students who enroll feel committed and find it affordable, but the median earnings of $26,700 a decade out deserve serious attention when planning your financial future. This is a strong option for students specifically seeking an Orthodox Jewish studies environment where the tight-knit community of 81 undergrads is clearly a feature, not a bug — but if career earnings are a priority, go in with eyes open and a clear plan for how this degree connects to your goals.
