Yeshivat Chovevei Torah Rabbinical School (YCT) is a 4-year Modern Orthodox rabbinical school with 30 current students and over 125 graduates serving in the field.
YCT believes that we need a new breed of Jewish leaders – rabbis who embody an expansive and empowering Orthodoxy, who work to shape communities that are diverse and welcoming, and who believe that the way to inspire people to grow in Torah and mitzvoth is through an approach that is non-judgmental and intellectually open.
YCT students are chosen through a rigorous process that assesses every applicant’s character, make-up, and overall ability to perform and excel as a Jewish leader in the community. Our curriculum is taught at the highest levels of academic excellence, and is the first to make pastoral counseling and professional development as core components of an Orthodox rabbinic education.
