About

Yeshiva University is a private university with four campuses in New York City, United States. The university's undergraduate schools—Yeshiva College, Stern College for Women, and Sy Syms School of Business—offer a dual curriculum inspired by Modern–Centrist–Orthodox Judaism's hashkafa (philosophy) of Torah Umadda ("Torah and secular knowledge"), which synthesizes a secular academic education with the study of the Torah. The majority of undergraduate students at the university identify as Modern Orthodox Jews. Hillel International estimates that nearly all of the university's undergraduate students are Jewish, while most of the graduate students are not, with the exception of those enrolled at Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary.
