This is the link to the Princeton Review of YU.

My favorite part?

Religious affiliation: No affiliation.

This from a school called YESHIVA University.

Someone is really, really, really dumb.

fact: YU is a university...means grad schools, which means jews and NON jews...

fact: no where does it say that yc or stern c only admits jews, technically if a chinese m/f wanted to attend college, and had the right grades and other marks, they could, by law, yc/stern cannot discrimnate, therefore no affiliation...in an odd type of way


i think this is right....i remember having this discussion with woman who interviewed me for stern

I have a friend who goes to a Catholic college. I don't know why she does, but she does - a religious Jew. The fact that she goes there doesn't make it any less of a Catholic college.

YU is a Jewish institution. The fact that non-Jews can, if they want, attend (though why they'd want to sit through all those Judaics, I'll never know) doesn't make it any less of a Jewish institution.

You're right. Boston College is officially affiliated with the Jesuits, but they accept anyone. Just for example.

"Students who applied to YU also applied to: Brandeis University, Touro College..."

hee!

If you look at this, it appears that since I left, YU has decided giving each computer its own classroom or lab.

This seems at least somewhat ineffecient.
