About This School

Yeshiva of Nitra Rabbinical College is a private nonprofit institution located in Chester, New York with approximately 243 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $10,880 per year. The graduation rate is 11%, and the typical graduate earns $32,200 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $5,823 average net price is genuinely affordable, and the 96% freshman retention rate suggests students who enroll feel connected enough to stay. However, the 18% graduation rate is a serious red flag worth pressing the school to explain, and median earnings of $32,200 a decade out reflect the narrow vocational focus of rabbinical training rather than broad career preparation. This is worth considering only if a student is deeply committed to Orthodox Jewish religious study as a life path, not as a general higher education option.
