Touro University is a private Jewish university system headquartered in New York City, with branches throughout the United States as well as one each in Germany, Israel, and Russia. It was founded by Bernard Lander in 1971 and named for Isaac and Judah Touro. Its main campus in New York City is the largest private Jewish university in the U.S. Touro initially focused on higher education for the Jewish community, but it now has 113,457 living alumni and serves a diverse population of over 19,000 students across 36 schools and four countries. There are many branches of Touro University, including Lander College for Men and Lander College for Women.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the average net price of $16,599/year and a median graduation debt of just $14,437 are genuinely affordable, making this a reasonable choice for cost-conscious students. However, the 42% graduation rate is a real concern — fewer than half of students who start here finish, which is worth taking seriously before enrolling. Worth considering if you're a self-directed adult learner drawn to its online flexibility, but ask hard questions about academic support and what's driving that completion gap.
