### Who it’s a good fit for

Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College is a private nonprofit university in Monsey, New York, where every bachelor's degree awarded is in Philosophy & Religious Studies. Its affordability pillar is among the highest we track.

Most graduates are estimated to continue to graduate study rather than enter the workforce directly, based on the program mix. Affordability is among the highest we track, and the average aid recipient pays below what students at comparable institutions pay.

Access is well above average. Return is below the levels seen at many peers, and the typical graduate earns below the median at comparable schools.

Mobility is above average. The admission rate is below the median for comparable institutions, and the program mix is entirely in Philosophy & Religious Studies.

## Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College rankings: how Azimuth assesses value[\[5\]](#hub-data-note-rankings)

Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College is a private nonprofit university in Monsey, New York, enrolling 84 undergraduates. Its composite standing sits in the 72nd percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions.

The university admits 36.8% of applicants, a rate well below the 75.7% median for comparable institutions of the same type and size. Among full-time first-year students, 48.5% return for a second year, against a peer median of 74.2%.

The [six-year graduation rate](/analysis/what-the-graduation-rate-doesnt-count/) for that same cohort is 6.2%, compared with a median of 54.9% at similar schools. An estimated 50.0% of entrants arrive as transfers or part-time students, so the first-time full-time cohort describes a minority of the student body.

The four pillars sit far apart. Affordability is the strongest, at the 96th percentile, and return is the weakest, at the 10th percentile. Access and mobility fall between them, at the 87th and 61st percentiles.

[Azimuth ranks](/analysis/college-program-rankings-how-to-actually-evaluate-programs/) Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College #55 for affordability among nonprofit four-year institutions. That places the pillar in the 96th percentile, the strongest of the four.

Access follows at the 87th percentile, and mobility at the 61st percentile. Return is the weakest pillar, in the 10th percentile.

The profile is one of a low-cost institution where the earnings picture is the part to weigh most carefully.

Pell Grants reach 75.6% of undergraduates at Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College. That share measures financial access.

It indicates how widely the university enrolls students who qualify for federal need-based aid. Among nonprofit four-year institutions, Azimuth places the university at #194 for access.

The access pillar draws on the share of students receiving federal need-based aid at this university. Among nonprofit four-year institutions, Azimuth places the university at #456 for mobility.

### Borrowing and repayment at Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College

The return picture at Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College is shaped by a low earnings figure and a strong affordability position. Four years after completion, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $31,220.

That is $24,695 below the $55,915 median for comparable institutions (same type and size), and it places the university at the 2nd percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Earnings scenarios, estimated from the program mix, show a typical figure of $31,220.

Azimuth ranks the university #1,314 for return. That makes it the weakest of the four pillars.

The affordability pillar, at the 96th percentile, tells a different story: the published cost of attendance is $20,600, and aid covers about 60% of that for the average recipient. A low [net price](/analysis/is-college-worth-it-part-1-the-net-price-illusion/) and below-peer earnings pull in opposite directions here.

The federal data for this school does not include a median student debt figure, so an estimated monthly payment if repaid over ten years cannot be shown.

Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College awards every bachelor's degree in a single field: Philosophy & Religious Studies, at 100.0% of degrees awarded. Because the school has no programs with published earnings data, [Azimuth's program ranking](/analysis/college-program-rankings-how-to-actually-evaluate-programs/)s cannot reach it.

Those rankings evaluate four-year earnings among federally aided completers, median debt, and cohort size. Award counts reflect degrees conferred in one academic year, and program earnings cover federally aided completers. The degree mix is concentrated entirely in Philosophy & Religious Studies.

The entire bachelor's degree output at Yeshiva D'monsey Rabbinical College comes from a single program family: Philosophy & Religious Studies accounts for 100.0% of degrees awarded. The page does not have program-level earnings or rankings for this institution.

## Data scope & methodology

Structured payloads generated September 27, 2026 · Governed hub narrative September 28, 2026 · Governed spoke corpus September 28, 2026

Four-year earnings describe cohorts of completers. Figures for other horizons describe different cohorts and are not joined into a career-growth projection.

Azimuth's overall rank and pillar percentiles come from the school profile. Absolute pillar ranks, city, enrollment and official-site links are shown only when structured data supplies them.

Detailed earnings, cost, admissions and program values come from the endpoint responsible for each measure. Missing values are not replaced with zero. Value-added estimates are model associations, not causal effects.

Figures are refreshed with each data release, at most a quarter apart. The underlying source dates can be earlier than the release.

Explanatory text is AI-assisted drafting checked against those figures; it is not an additional data source.

## Data notes & source fields

Scorecard field codes identify the underlying measure; Azimuth-derived values are labeled separately. Snapshot dates are not measurement years. Source populations and reporting periods differ across measures. Field definitions are in the [U.S. Department of Education · College Scorecard documentation](https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/files/InstitutionDataDocumentation.pdf); notes with a different source link it below.

1.  **Admission rate.** Reported applicants admitted; not a transfer-specific or individual admission probability.
    
    Source fields: `ADM_RATE`
    
2.  **Six-year completion.** First-time, full-time students completing at the institution within 150% of normal time, typically six years for a bachelor’s degree.

6.  **Annual net price by family income.** Average annual cost after grants and scholarships for the eligible first-time, full-time aid-recipient cohort. Public-school figures reflect in-state tuition. Includes living costs; these are averages, not medians or individual offers.
    
    Source fields: `NPT4_PUB/PRIV; NPT41_PUB/PRIV through NPT45_PUB/PRIV`
    
7.  **Parent PLUS debt, payments and GPS illustration.** Stored payments use Financial GPS loan and repayment assumptions. The adjustable spectrum applies the published framework to annual student payments divided by earnings minus an expense allowance; its initial allowance uses the frozen 2024 framework baseline. It is an illustration rather than a school rating. Parent PLUS uses the completer median where available, otherwise the all-borrower median; these describe different borrowing populations.
