Rabbinical Seminary
Private College in Ossining, NY. Six-year graduation rate 63%. Median 10-year earnings $36,442.
Median earnings ten years after entry come to $36,442, below what most undergraduate institutions return — the central fact to weigh against cost here. 63% finish within six years — respectable, though a meaningful share still leave without a credential.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.
Academics
63% graduate within six years — average, but that average still hides a large group who do not. First-year retention of 100% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. That gap between coming back and finishing is where this school loses people — after the first year, not during it. The 37% transfer-out rate is high enough that a large share of this school's students are really passing through. At 15:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 206 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
At $5,026 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price varies modestly by income — $3,505 at $0–30k against $7,722 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 100% of students get grant aid averaging $12,412, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $3,505 |
| $30–48k | $2,480 |
| $48–75k | $6,931 |
| $75–110k | $7,722 |
