I respectfully disagree and I know many people who have degrees from yeshiva and have gone very far in corporate America whether in law, accounting or finance.
I do know people who got into Ivy League schools with these degrees. I also know people who gotten into the B schools and in a way they got better offers cuz they were top in those law or graduate schools as opposed to being in the middle or bottom of Harvard or Yale. If people have either religious, monetary or time restraints and decide to go through the yeshiva degree it might be harder then if you go through a regular college but it is definitely doable if you work hard.Keep in mind that NY Yeshiva’s give first Talmudic degrees, most other yeshivas give bachelor of Talmudic studies which actually is higher then a bachelors of Talmudic law ( which Ner yisroel & a few other schools give).
At the end of the day you probably need an aarts accreditation to get any degree. It doesn’t make a difference the name of degree, it is considered more or less the same to the outside world. If you do well on your lsats then can probably get into law school with those degrees. The other option is to use your credits & go through these different Jewish programs or do it on your own. None of them are considered top notch but if you do really well on lsat you can get into a good law school and if have good gpa in law school and do a good internship then will make resume look good. Good luck!
