Academy for Jewish Religion (New York)

The Academy for Jewish Religion (AJR) is a rabbinical school based in Yonkers, New York, founded on a pluralistic approach to Judaism.^[1]^[2] The rabbinical school was the first to appoint a Jewish woman as its president.^[3]

History

The Academy for Jewish Religion was founded in 1956 as a rabbinical school. Initially called the Academy for Liberal Judaism (and then the Academy for Higher Jewish Learning), it was granted a charter to ordain rabbis by the Regents of the University of the State of New York.^[4]

Accreditation

AJR is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada. It is currently the only Jewish organization out of more than 270 ATS-accredited seminaries and divinity schools.^[5]
