JTS’s Growing Rabbinical School Featured in “The Forward”

July 1, 2026

The Forward recently featured JTS in an article highlighting the growing rabbinical class enrollments of JTS and Hebrew Union College. This coming fall, JTS will be welcoming a Rabbinical School class of 25 aspiring rabbis, our largest class since 2011.

“We are seeing a beautifully diverse population of students, which I think mirrors the people who are in our Jewish communities,” said Rabbi Ayelet Cohen, the Pearl Resnick Dean of The Rabbinical School and Dean of the Division of Religious Leadership at JTS.
