Welcome to the Office of Student Life!

We are thrilled you are visiting us online! Feel free to also visit us on campus in person in Unterberg 209, or contact us at (212) 678-8839, or studentlife@jtsa.edu

The Office of Student Life is here to enhance and enrich the personal, social, educational, and religious growth of JTS students and to create a welcoming, student-centered environment. The Student-Life staff coordinates a wide variety of activities with an emphasis on creating community at JTS for students in each of the five JTS schools (List College, The Rabbinical School, H. L. Miller Cantorial School and College of Jewish Music, William Davidson Graduate School of Jewish Education, and The Graduate School). 

The Student Life staff takes a personal interest in each individual and gets to know as many students as possible. Students, faculty, and staff are welcome to drop by anytime for information about activities and life in New York City, to chat, or merely to relax. The Billie Rosenthal Rubinoff Center for Student Life on second-floor Unterberg is a great place to meet with other students, enjoy a snack, and/or study. 

The Office of Student Life oversees the work of the Va’ad Gemilut Hasadim: Susan and Jack Rudin Center for Community Outreach and the JTS Israel Va'ad. The Jewish Life directors in the residence halls organize Jewish cultural and religious programming and serve as a resource for residents. In addition, Student Life works closely with the student organizations on programming initiatives.
