Rabbinical/Semicha Program
For students accepted into the Semicha program they are required to spend three-years studying Halacha in the afternoons in addition to their morning seder of Gemara. The three years usually consist of: Shabbat, Nidah, and Issur v'Heter. Other classes include Hashkafa (Jewish Philosophy) and Practical Rabbinics. A mandatory b'keiyut program in Talmud was instituted beginning with the 2008-2009 year.
