“Jewish-sponsored network of campuses across New York City training professionals in health sciences and business.”
New York, NY
Location
Touro University, founded in 1971, carries the legacy of philanthropist Judah Touro by providing accessible higher education through its campuses scattered across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond. It draws students who prioritize practical career preparation in a fast-paced urban environment, often balancing studies with city jobs or family commitments. You'll find a straightforward, no-frills personality here—focused on results rather than rah-rah traditions. New York City's energy fuels daily life, but expect high living costs and navigating subway commutes as part of the deal.

With over 6,000 undergraduates, intro classes fill auditoriums, but upper-level seminars offer closer faculty interaction. Jewish studies programs stand out for those interested in blending secular and religious learning.

Campus Life
Varsity Athletics
Campus life pulses with the city's rhythm—think weekday classes followed by internships or part-time work, weekends exploring neighborhoods from Midtown to Bay Ridge. Residential options exist at select sites like Lander College for observant students, but most commute, creating a mature, independent vibe over dorm-party scenes. Traditions center on Jewish holidays with communal meals and lectures, alongside general clubs for debate, volunteering, and professional networking. The urban setup means endless off-campus eats and events, though housing scarcity and steep rents challenge budgets.
