Hi, what is a typical break on seminary tuition in EY, for a brand-new (just opened) seminary and for a more established one? e.g. if the seminary says tuition is $22000, is it typical to pay $11000? And is it even less for a seminary which just opened this year? Thanks.
If a family is too poor to afford seminary tuition, even if discounted 75%, their daughter(s) will be unable to attend a seminary? Does the same principle apply regarding sons going to Beis Medrash?
It does not.
Also, government grants can heavily reduce the tuition to seminary, so a lot of families who can’t afford the $20k price still manage to send.
$20k is an example of tuition domestically or mainly in EY? Does PELL pay for overseas seminaries and beis medrash? How is the tuition situation different for poor families regarding B.M. vs. Seminary? Are they priced out of seminary whereas B.M. are more likely to discount the tuition?
People get government subsidies through FAFSA if you apply for an Israel Experience program through a US university. Depending on which seminary, you can do Hebrew Theological College, Yeshiva University, Touro, Michigan Jewish Institute, and I think TTI (raizel right) also does a program as well. I have also heard that you can get more subsidies if you go through a college that is in your state. The Neve Maalot program also has a way to get credits evaluated as well. I think that you can also apply the fafsa aid towards the cost of the program (meaning if the school charges $1800 for the transcript/credits in addition to the seminary tuition, you can use a loan or grant towards that).
Interesting!
#I went to seminary for a total of about $4,000, including airfare…
it’s about breaks and scholarships…
hashtagposter: Where did you get scholarships and breaks from? And what was your family financial situation at the time?
#Bh, I got a $11,000 break from my seminary, as an academic scholarship.
I got about $6000 from Fafsa
$2000 from Masa..
And there you go…
If you use FAFSA for Beis Medrash or seminary then you will have to pay thousands more for college, should one go, correct?
If you go to B’nos Deshe, can you get Popsa?
