New York, NY

What are your chances of getting into Yeshiva University?

Yeshiva University is known for combining a rigorous liberal arts education with intensive Jewish studies, so the academic experience is unusually structured and mission-driven. Undergraduates can choose from more than 65 majors and minors, and the university emphasizes close faculty interaction, small classes, and a 7:1 student-faculty ratio. It is spread across several New York City locations, with the main undergraduate life split between the uptown and midtown campuses, which gives students access to the city while still keeping a relatively intimate community. The student body is small enough to feel personal, but the university also offers the scale of multiple schools, including business, nursing, and joint or accelerated pathways. Students who thrive here usually want clear values, a strong sense of community, and a demanding academic environment tied to Jewish life and tradition.

Strengths

  • Strong dual curriculum that blends liberal arts with Jewish studies
  • Very small classes and close faculty access
  • New York City location with broad internship and cultural access
  • Wide range of undergraduate and professional pathways, including business, nursing, and pre-professional options

Things to weigh

  • Highly specialized campus culture that may not fit students who do not want a Jewish studies-centered environment
  • Spread across multiple city campuses rather than one compact residential campus
  • Big-city living can feel busy, expensive, and less traditional than a suburban college setting
  • Moderate selectivity means admission is not automatic, and applicants still need a solid academic profile

Yeshiva University admits about 56% of applicants, and the middle 50% of admitted students score between 1340 and 1510 on the SAT. Enter your GPA and test scores above and this calculator estimates your personal chances in seconds, and tells you whether Yeshiva University is a safety, match, or reach for your profile.

Is this the most accurate college admissions calculator?+

Counselly's chances calculator runs on real, current admissions data, the actual admit rates and SAT/ACT ranges colleges report to the U.S. Department of Education, not averages scraped from forums. Our algorithm weighs your GPA, test scores, and extracurricular strength against each school's admitted-student profile the way an admissions reader would begin, which makes it one of the most reliable free tools for seeing where you'll get into college.

How does the calculator predict my chances of getting in?+

It compares your academic profile to each college's real admitted class. We look at where your GPA and test scores fall within a school's 25th to 75th percentile range, combine that with the school's overall admit rate, and factor in your extracurricular strength, then translate it into a clear percentage and a Safety, Match, or Reach label. Everything recalculates instantly as you add schools or adjust your stats.

What counts as a good chance of getting into a college?+

Roughly above 60% is a Safety, you're comfortably ahead of the typical admitted student. Around 30 to 60% is a Match, realistic and worth prioritizing. Below 30% is a Reach, still absolutely worth applying to if it's a dream school. The strongest college lists balance all three, and Counselly helps you build exactly that kind of list.

Which colleges can I check my admission chances for?+

Hundreds of US colleges and universities, from Ivy League schools to large public flagships to smaller private colleges. Just start typing, MIT, UCLA, NYU, Michigan, and pick from the suggestions. We're continuously expanding our data, and your free assessment goes even further, matching you to programs across the country based on your full profile.

Can a calculator really tell me where I will get accepted?+

No tool can promise an outcome, and you should be cautious of any that claims to. What Counselly does exceptionally well is show you, honestly and instantly, exactly where you stand academically at each college, so you can build a smart, balanced list instead of guessing. Your essays, recommendations, and story do the rest, and your free assessment is built to help you strengthen all of them.

Is the college chances calculator free?+

Completely free, and no signup is required to use it. When you're ready to go further, your full assessment, the complete list of colleges where you're a strong fit plus a step-by-step plan to raise your odds, is also free to unlock with an account.
