Our day is divided between Limudei Kodesh and Limudei Chol, or General Studies. The Limmudei Kodesh program, which runs either until 12:20 pm or until 2:00 pm depending upon the program, is divided into three parts. The majority of the morning is spent in the intense and in-depth (be-iyyun) study of Gemara with time devoted to the study of halachah and hashkafah, at the discretion of the Rebbe. The second component of the morning program is a 45 minute shiur devoted to the study of Tanakh, and the third component, applicable to our advanced track Shiurim, is comprised of basic general Gemara study with an emphasis on breadth over depth (bekius), which in some cases takes place in the Yeshiva University Beis Medrash under the guidance of RIETS students.

The General Studies program begins at either 1:20 pm or 2:00 pm, depending upon the above Limmudei Kodesh schedule, and is divided into six periods covering a full range of disciplines including the sciences, mathematics, language, literature and history. Each student attends five academic courses and a Physical Education class. Both the Judaic and the General studies program incorporate requirements outside the classroom, including preparation for classes, exams and written assignments.
