ADMISSIONS
Yeshiva University is committed to a policy of equal opportunity and nondiscrimination in admissions and all other facets of its educational programs and activities. Address inquiries concerning the nondiscrimination policies to the Affirmative Action Administrator, Yeshiva University, Jack and Pearl Resnick Campus, 1300 Morris Park Avenue, Bronx, New York 10462-1602; 718 430-3272
Types of Admission
Each admitted student is classified under one of the following
categories. Not all schools admit under all categories.
Regular Students: students admitted with permission to work
toward degrees or diplomas. A regular student admitted with a condition
must resolve it within the time limit set by the Office of Admissions to
maintain regular student status.
Provisional Students: students admitted without meeting the full
requirements for regular status. While classified as provisional,
students take a limited program and must consult with the
Office of
Academic Advisement each semester before registration to review their
progress and receive approval of their proposed programs. Provisional
students who demonstrate satisfactory performance after two semesters of
full-time attendance may petition the dean to be reclassified as
regular.
Transient Students: students who enroll only to meet particular
needs as they pursue a degree at other institutions without pursuing a
regular program leading to a degree or diploma at Yeshiva University.
Applicants may be admitted as transient students with the permission of
their home institution and the specific approval of the school of
Yeshiva University to which they have applied. For the semester(s)
attended, transient students must be enrolled exclusively at Yeshiva
University (i.e., they cannot take individual courses while continuing
their studies at the home institution).
Visiting Students: students who register for a limited number of
courses in a school of Yeshiva University while enrolled with regular or
provisional status in another YU school. Students must have the
permission of both schools to register as visiting.
All students, regardless of their status, must meet all standards and
comply with all regulations and requirements.
College Courses for
High School Students
Yeshiva University High School seniors with good records may take
individual undergraduate courses for college credit at Stern College for
Women or Sy Syms School of Business. These courses do not count toward
undergraduate residency requirements. Obtain information on availability
of individual courses from the
Office of the Registrar.
University Resources
Undergraduate students have many opportunities to benefit from Yeshiva
University’s graduate and professional schools. These include academic
programs such as funded summer internships at the
Albert
Einstein College of Medicine and joint degree programs with the
Wurzweiler School of Social Work
and the Cardozo
School of Law.
Special scholarships, such as the Anne Scheiber Scholarship Fund at the
Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the David Berg and Family
Scholarship at the Cardozo School of Law, are available for YU
undergraduates who go on to graduate study within the university.
Admissions committees at the YU graduate and professional schools give
special attention to applications from our undergraduates and are well
acquainted with the strengths of the undergraduate academic and Jewish
Studies programs. The
Albert
Einstein College of Medicine grants an interview to each YU senior
who applies.
