JERSEY CITY, N.J. – Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s University President Hubert Benitez and University leadership recently met with Rabbi Elazar Meisels, dean of the Sara Schenirer Institute, to discuss the expansion of an ongoing educational partnership between the two institutions, grounded in academic excellence and mutual respect for institutional values.
For more than 45 years, Sara Schenirer has partnered with highly respected colleges and universities, including Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s, to deliver affordable, high-quality education while maintaining its deeply held cultural and religious values. Through these partnerships, thousands of students have earned degrees and gone on to serve as leaders within the Jewish community and beyond.
President Benitez emphasized that an expansion of the existing partnership with Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s University would ensure that students affiliated with Sara Schenirer are fully integrated into the University’s academic community. Students are held to the same academic standards and expectations, with a shared commitment to excellence across all programs.
At the same time, the model offers a tailored student experience that combines Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s rigorous academic framework with the cultural understanding and support provided by Sara Schenirer. This approach allows for an accelerated, affordable and high-quality education while meeting the unique needs of its student population.
Students participating in the program benefit from the full academic resources of Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s University, while also receiving an added layer of cultural sensitivity that enhances their overall educational experience. The partnership reflects the University’s continued focus on expanding access to high-quality education without compromising core cherished values.
