Yeshiva Derech Chaim enrolls a relatively small student body, with a total of 34 new students for the academic year, including 24 freshmen and 10 transfer students. These admit rates place the institution in the lower 30th percentile compared to similar schools. The student population is composed of both undergraduate and graduate learners, spanning a wide range of ages.
Among undergraduates, the majority are aged between 18 and 21, with 49 students aged 18-19 and 39 students aged 20-21. Younger students under 18 comprise a smaller group of 8, while a modest number of undergraduates are aged 22-29, and very few are over 30. Graduate students tend to be older, primarily falling between 22 to 39 years old, with the largest groups aged 25-29 and 30-34, suggesting a mix of early-career and more mature learners.
The total student age distribution reflects this diversity, as the institution serves a varied demographic in terms of student age. However, the data on students from different states or countries, as well as ethnicity beyond the white student population, is largely unavailable.
Regarding ethnicity, the school reports 109 white students, a figure considered low when compared to broader benchmarks, placing the institution in the bottom 30 percentile for white student representation. There is no accessible information on other racial or ethnic groups enrolled at Yeshiva Derech Chaim.
Yeshiva Derech Chaim maintains a relatively small student body, with a total enrollment of 152 students, placing it in the lower 30% when compared to other institutions. This size fosters a close-knit campus atmosphere, which may appeal to students seeking a more intimate educational environment. The student-to-faculty ratio is approximately 11 to 1, reflecting an average level of personalized attention during classes and academic interactions.
The institution employs a modest number of full-time staff members, totaling 18, which also ranks in the lower 30% range nationally. Part-time staff number 13, considered average in comparison. These staffing levels suggest that while the college maintains essential support for its academic programs, resources might be more limited relative to larger universities.
Yeshiva Derech Chaim does not participate in major collegiate athletic associations, and there is no available information on athletics programs or organized sports activities. Additionally, there is no data on campus media, performing arts, or dedicated student support services such as health clinics or counseling centers, which may indicate a focus primarily on academic and religious instruction rather than broader extracurricular offerings.
