About This School

Rabbinical College of America is a private nonprofit institution located in Morristown, New Jersey with approximately 181 undergraduate students enrolled. Rabbinical College of America has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 95%. The average net price after financial aid is $15,628 per year. The graduation rate is 22%, and the typical graduate earns $37,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

The Rabbinical College of America is a yeshiva in Morris Township, New Jersey, affiliated with the Chabad movement of Hasidic Judaism. Licensed by the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education, the yeshiva grants a four-year bachelor's degree in religious studies and a master's degree program in religious education and is accredited by the Association of Advanced Rabbinical and Talmudic Schools. The yeshiva is the New Jersey headquarters of the Chabad movement.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: while the $13,452 average net price makes this one of the more affordable private institutions, the 18% graduation rate is a serious red flag that demands explanation before enrolling. This is a highly specialized Chabad-Lubavitch rabbinical institution, so it's worth considering only if that specific religious path aligns with your goals — many students may leave for reasons tied to that mission rather than academic struggles, but you should ask the school directly. Median earnings of $37,500 a decade out reflect the realities of religious vocation work, so students expecting strong financial returns should weigh that carefully against their motivations for attending.
