New Students

Dear Student,
We are thrilled to welcome you to Yeshiva University!

With a staff of Roshei Yeshiva and rebbeim of the highest caliber, along with an unparalleled chevra of talmidim, you are joining one of the finest yeshivot around. Yeshiva has a long and storied history of Torah excellence combined with middos tovos and menschlichkeit. Our success in developing outstanding talmidim is a result of every talmid being treated as family. Joining the YU family means you are surrounded by people who are here to support you, encourage you, cheer for your successes and lift you up through the challenges.

Orientation is a great time to meet the Torah Studies team.  The Torah Studies deans will be around to explain the different Torah programs and register you for the one that best fits your needs.  We look forward to greeting you in person during orientation, and if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out to us - Rabbi Kalinsky, Rabbi Feit or Rabbi Bacon.

We wish you much hatzlacha this coming semester and throughout your years in Yeshiva.

Please see our student resources page for everything you need to know to start off the semester right!
