Overview

Touro is a Jewish-sponsored private university system headquartered in New York City, built to serve a wide range of students, including many Orthodox Jewish students who want a college option compatible with religious observance, alongside a broader student body drawn to its professional programs.

Academics

Health sciences, business, and Judaic studies are particular strengths, and several of Touro's undergraduate colleges maintain separate divisions for men and women to serve observant students, alongside coeducational programs open to all students regardless of religious background.

Campus & student life

Because Touro operates as a system of colleges across multiple New York City locations and beyond, campus life varies significantly by division; the colleges serving Orthodox students build religious observance directly into the daily and weekly schedule, while other divisions run more like a conventional urban commuter college.

Worth knowing

The men's and women's divisions serving Orthodox students are a genuinely distinctive feature nationally, and prospective students should understand which Touro college and division they are applying to, since the experience differs substantially across the system.
