EYAHT is a full-time college for advanced Jewish learning designed to inspire Jewish women to maximize their potential. Through thought-provoking and stimulating courses, students are taught how to integrate Torah into every aspect of their lives in order to reach their full potential and live a truly Jewish life.

Rebbetzin Denah Weinberg, wife of the Rosh Yeshiva of Aish HaTorah International, Rabbi Noach Weinberg, is the dean of the college. In her role, she inspires, educates and challenges her students to think about their lives, both internal and external. The highly qualified, diverse faculty of 20 Rebbetzins and Rabbis who join Rebbetzin Weinberg in conveying the beauty of Judaism provide the students with role models and often become warm life-long friends.

EYAHT's ultimate purpose can be seen in the name itself, which is an acronym for a verse in King Solomon's text, Eishet Chayil, "A Woman of Valor": Isha Yirat Hashem, Hi Tit'hallah-A woman who has knowledge of her Creator and His world is Praiseworthy."

EYAHT's student body is comprised of women from many countries, generally ranging in age from 22-30. Most have completed their university studies and are professionals who have realized the tremendous value of learning about their rich Jewish heritage.

EYAHT offers various levels of learning and creates individualized schedules for students who bridge more than one level.

 
EYAHT, which currently has over 2,000 alumnae, first opened its doors in 1984. Today, many of EYAHT's alumnae are leaders in Jewish communities around the world. They include accomplished professionals, educators, outreach activists, wives and mothers. They are women who have been empowered to achieve personal greatness and make the right decisions for themselves regarding career, marriage and family issues.
