Student and Faculty Quotes

YCT is a place that fosters rigorous Torah learning.  At the same time, because of its profound commitment to Klal Yisrael, it has supported me in my pursuit to build Jewish communities around the world, from Belarus to Australia.

Across North America and throughout the world Yeshivat Chovevei Torah alumni are serving the Jewish community as rabbis of synagogues and campus Hillels, as Jewish educators, hospital chaplains and leaders of non-profit organizations.  They are starting new synagogues and invigorating old ones.  They are bringing a vibrant open Orthodoxy to their communities.  YCT rabbis are educating and connecting with Jewish students of all backgrounds, teaching a Torah of intellectual rigor and spiritual passion. Infused with a profound knowledge of Jewish texts, a passionate commitment to halakha and a deep concern for all Jews, our rabbis are breathing new life into modern Orthodoxy, and bringing an inclusive and meaningful Torah to all of Klal Yisrael.

YCT is committed to providing strong professional guidance to our current students as well as our alumni. Through ongoing mentoring and placement in rabbinic internships, we actively work with our students to identify their career goals. Our placement office is proactive in identifying professional opportunities and ensuring that each student finds a job that is appropriate for his talents and interests.
