About This School

Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel is a private nonprofit institution located in Lakewood, New Jersey with approximately 150 undergraduate students enrolled. Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 54%. The average net price after financial aid is $15,086 per year. The graduation rate is 89%.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $8,036 average net price is genuinely affordable, making it one of the more accessible options financially, but the 70% graduation rate and 71% freshman retention rate suggest that roughly 3 in 10 students don't finish or don't return after year one — worth asking the school about directly. With only 132 students, this is a tight-knit, specialized yeshiva environment that suits a specific type of learner committed to that setting. Worth considering if the religious and academic focus aligns with your goals, but come with clear questions about what drives attrition.
