Yeshiva University is a private Orthodox Jewish university with four campuses in New York City.[4] The university's undergraduate schools—Yeshiva College, Stern College for Women, Katz School of Science and Health, 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"), combining academic education with the study of the Torah.[5]
The majority of students at the university identify as Modern Orthodox.[6] The undergraduate body is entirely Jewish,[7] while most of the graduate students, especially at the Cardozo School of Law, the Sy Syms School of Business, and the Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology, are not Jewish.[8]
Yeshiva University is an independent institution chartered by New York State.[9][10][11][12] It is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.[13]
