The reported median is $19,057 four years after completion. The return pillar at Kehilath Yakov Rabbinical Seminary is the weakest of the four, and Azimuth places it at the 10th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Four years after completing a degree, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $19,057. That figure sits at the 1st percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions, and is $36,858 below the $55,915 median for comparable institutions (same type and size). Earnings scenarios, estimated from the program mix, show a typical figure of $19,057. The median for comparable institutions (same type and size) is $55,915, and the university's typical scenario is $36,858 below that mark. The spread between higher- and lower-earning fields is narrow. An estimated 55.0% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment. Because four-year earnings cover completers who are working and not enrolled, those continuing their education are outside that earnings snapshot. **Median earnings · four years after completion** $19,057 Four-year median earnings against two benchmarks **Kehilath Yakov Rabbinical Seminary reported median** $19,057 School and program earnings use pooled 2017–18 and 2018–19 completion cohorts, measured in 2022 and 2023 and expressed in 2024 dollars.

Azimuth models what we would expect graduates to earn based on who the college enrolls, how selective it is and its local economy. The difference between that expectation and reported earnings is what Azimuth calls [value added](/methodology/#value-added). That comparison is not reported for Kehilath Yakov Rabbinical Seminary. Unlike a peer comparison, it adjusts for who enrolls. The breakdown separates the contribution attributed to observed factors from the remaining difference. Neither component establishes how much attending Kehilath Yakov Rabbinical Seminary caused a student to earn.

Four years after completing a degree, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $19,057. That figure is $36,858 below the $55,915 median for comparable institutions (same type and size), and Azimuth places it in the 1st percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. The earnings cohort is small, at 16 completers. Earnings scenarios, estimated from the university's program mix, put the typical outcome at the same level as the observed median. These are scenarios, not observed groups of graduates. An estimated 55.0% of graduates continue to graduate study, based on the program mix. The four-year earnings figure captures only those working and not enrolled, so the graduate-school estimate provides additional context. ## Data & methodology Sources and reporting periods: [methodology](/methodology/).
