Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel emphasizes physical activity as part of its overall student experience. The institution offers various sports programs that encourage teamwork, fitness, and personal development among students. These activities are designed to promote a healthy lifestyle alongside rigorous academic and religious studies.
The yeshiva organizes opportunities for students to participate in basketball and baseball leagues, which are among the primary sports available. These programs enable students to engage in regular practice sessions and competitive games, fostering a sense of community and school spirit.
Facilities supporting these athletic pursuits include indoor and outdoor spaces suitable for training and events, ensuring that students have adequate environments to develop their skills. Coaches and staff members at the yeshiva work to guide participants, balancing athletic involvement with the demanding schedule of the yeshiva curriculum.
Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel has a male student body totaling 132 individuals. However, there is no available information regarding specific student groups or associations for either men or women at the institution. Consequently, no details about the percentage of students participating in social organizations can be provided.
Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel has a relatively small undergraduate population, with a total enrollment of 44 students, a figure that places it in the lower 30th percentile nationally. Of these, all are freshmen, indicating that the institution currently does not enroll transfer students. The student body is primarily young, with the majority aged between 18 and 19 years old, followed by a significant portion under 18, and a smaller group aged 20 to 21. Very few students fall outside these age ranges, and there are virtually no graduate students enrolled.
The ethnic composition data reveals that 132 students are identified as white, a number that again situates the institution in the lower 30th percentile relative to peer schools. Unfortunately, detailed demographic information on other ethnic groups is not available.
Student life at Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel features a relatively small enrollment, with a total student body of 132, placing it in the lower 30th percentile in size compared to other institutions. The male full-time degree-seeking population is also modest, numbering 44 students and ranking similarly low in size. This smaller community size may contribute to a more intimate academic environment.
Despite the small student population, the institution faces a notably high student-to-faculty ratio of 26 to 1, which positions it within the top 5% for the highest ratios nationally. This suggests that students might experience larger class sizes or less direct faculty availability than at many other colleges.
The staff composition includes 3 full-time employees and 14 part-time staff members. The limited full-time staff number places the institution in the bottom quartile compared to peers, while the part-time staff levels are around average. This staffing structure may affect aspects of student services and support.
Yeshiva Gedolah Shaarei Shmuel does not have any dedicated libraries available for student use. The institution reports zero libraries, placing it in the lower quartile compared to peer institutions.
Students can expect access to approximately 4,500 books, which is considered an average-sized collection but still falls in the lower 40% range relative to comparable establishments.
The yeshiva lacks physical library facilities, digital access to library resources, and staffed library support, which can impact research and study convenience for students seeking diverse or extensive materials.
