Admissions
Talmudical Academy-New Jersey admits 43% of applicants and is genuinely selective — roughly three in five applicants are turned away. The applicant pool is small at 23, which makes year-over-year comparisons unreliable. 100% of admitted students actually enroll, which is a high yield by national standards.
Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)
These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Academics
Completion is middling: 60% finish inside six years. Retention is strong at 90%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. Retention runs well ahead of completion, which means students are not leaving immediately; they are leaving somewhere between the second year and the finish line. A 20% transfer-out rate accounts for part of that gap: those students left for another institution rather than dropping out, and the graduation rate above counts them as non-completers here. A 18:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 78 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $10,524 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. Income makes less difference than usual: $6,457 at $0–30k, $6,164 at $48–75k. 92% of students get grant aid averaging $13,181, 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.

| $0–30k | $6,457 |
