Financial Policy - Post High School Beis Medrash 

  • Tuition for the academic year is $24,000 USD
  • Payment can be made by means of a $2000 non-refundable registration fee to secure your place in the yeshiva for the academic year, followed by 11 further $2000 monthly payments on the first day of each calendar month with the first payment due on the official starting date. Once the student has been in the yeshiva for a minimum of three months, the initial registration fee will be eligible for use to cover the final payment for the year. If you wish to pay in fewer installments this can be arranged.
  • Tuition payments must be set in advance either through recurring credit card payments or post-dated checks
  • Students who withdraw from the yeshiva before the official end of the year are responsible to pay tuition calculated prorated on a ten month basis. (i.e. the payment for the 10 month academic year is paid over 12 months)
  • For methods of payment please see www.bircas.org/donate . Please notify our office which method of payment you will be using.
  • Tuition subsidies are available to students who require financial assistance. Anyone who does receive a financial scholarship is still required to follow the payment schedule with the maximum amount of expected tuition paid per zman.  For more information please contact Rabbi Jacobs (rabbijacobs@bircas.org)

Trips / Tiyulim - Additional charges

  • Despite increasing costs Bircas HaTorah has not increased our tution  for many years. However, costs keep increasing.
  • We have therefore decided, in line with the policy in many other yeshivas, starting Elul 5783, to ask the talmidim / parents to assume a portion of the costs of our extracurricular activities.
  • Over the course of the year the yeshiva goes on a number of tiyulim and trips. These provide kosher entertainment, and the much needed breath of fresh air that healthy growing men need.
  • The talmid's share of the cost will be charged to the credit card which we have on file. (Each talmid / parent will need to provide us with credit card information at the beginning of the academic year.)
  • We will send out a general notification of upcoming credit card charges by email (please ensure we have your email on file) during the last week of the month, for the following month so that you know when charges will be made.
  • The number of trips varies from year to dear depending on what the Hanahala feels is needed for the talmidim's growth and government guidelines. Prices may vary depending on actual costs but we envisage charges of up to $1000 per academic year.
  • A small number of the trips may be for first-year talmidim only, and some trips are optional.
  • Here is a sample trip schedule with anticipated contributions
    • beginning of the year trip(s) - group formation - $125
    • 3 x 1 day tiyulim throughout the year to recharge and refresh - $100 each
    • Mid-winter 3 day tiyul - $200
    • Shabbaton - $125
    • End of year 2-3 day tiyul to review, internalise, connect and celebrate - $200
  • This policy will start in Elul 5783 for the 5783-84 academic year.
