About This School
Kehilath Yakov Rabbinical Seminary is a private nonprofit institution located in Ossining, New York with approximately 206 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $3,074 per year. The graduation rate is 47%.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $3,074 average annual net price is remarkably low, making this one of the most affordable seminary options you'll find, and the 98% freshman retention rate suggests students who enroll feel strongly connected to the community. However, the 47% graduation rate is a real concern — nearly half of students who start here don't finish, which is worth pressing the school to explain before committing. This is a strong option for students deeply aligned with its Orthodox Jewish religious mission, but families should ask hard questions about why so many students leave before completing their degree.
