Programs Directory

Below you will find a list of different Seminaries and Yeshivas to take your gap year. If you have questions regarding any of the programs, we recommend speaking to your school’s gap year counselor if you have one. Your next step would be to speak to an alumni, or someone who is currently attending the seminary or yeshiva that you have interest in. 

Don’t see your program? Tell us! We are always looking to expand our list. 

Important Links:

  • This is the Gap Year Application Database: http://www.applytosem.org/

  • YU has a great directory that summarizes key information about the seminaries, so I would definitely refer you to use that. We’ll have a list here as well for each seminary’s website nevertheless.​

For information events/sessions and financial aid inquiries, check out this website to see when the place you’re interested in having a session or to look at scholarships. Your high school may offer a scholarship as well.
