Yeshiva University spends more than $1,250,000 per year on scholarship aid to gifted students, a higher per student average than that of any other college or university in the United States, Dr. Samuel Belkin, university president, disclosed.
Addressing the university’s 35th annual scholarship dinner here, Dr. Belkin said that “It is through scholarships that Yeshiva University is able to prepare our youth to meet the technological challenges of our age and to provide them with a moral and spiritual training which represents the strongest bulwark of our democratic way of life.”
