<p>Johns Hopkins has kosher food, as does Boston University, Goucher College, Boston College, and many others. You're better off trying to decide what you want in a college, finding ones that meet your criteria, and then seeing if they have a kosher dining option. Otherwise, you'll never narrow it down.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure most major colleges have Kosher dining. Brandeis has a Kosher cafetira. In terms of State Schools, I know Binghamton has a Kosher Kitchen. </p>
<p>see <a href="http://hillel.org/hillel/Hillel_Schools_New.nsf/Schools?OpenForm%5B/url%5D">http://hillel.org/hillel/Hillel_Schools_New.nsf/Schools?OpenForm</a>
type in a school and it will tell you lots of information about Jewish life including Kosher food options</p>
<p>Oh, one more thing about Brandeis. Its kosher dining options are unique (I believe) in that there is a dining hall in which kosher kids can sit at the same table as non-kosher, or if that's not comfortable at least in the same room. It tends to be less isolating.</p>
<p>chedva, that's an excellent point. Sherman Dining Hall is the only integrated Kosher Kitchen in the country. With two distinct serving areas, Kosher students can eat with Non-Kosher Students in the same seating area. It's great!</p>
<p>if you are interested in going farther south, emory has a strong jewish population and kosher dining facilities (plus its a great school overall)</p>
<p>Well, it can't be in the same table. I'm not even sure if it could even be in the same room. If you can, yeah, that's pretty neat that you don't have to be seperated. The thing is, I don't want to be totally isolated from everybody else just because I'm a little bit diffrent. If I wanted to isolaton, I would just go to YU. Anyway, thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it.</p>
<p>Columbia has a kosher counter in the regular dining hall too, so you could sit at the same table as non-kosher kids (although I know you said you wanted to go elsewhere).</p>
<p>Washington U in St Louis...tons of koshier options...check it out</p>
<p>Well, it's not like I want to go elsewhere, it's just that I know I can't get into Columbia and Cornell because I can't take the SAT II's (see my other Thread)</p>
<p>moz, yes you can be at the same table as non-Kosher people at Brandeis. The most observant students (and I mean very orthodox) sit with non-Kosher people because, as I said, people just eat on their own trays. Kosher Kops patrol the dining hall to make sure nobody is violating any rules...</p>
<p>Mozillameister, when the time comes to select schools, you may also want to keep other aspects of your religion and lifestyle in mind besides just food. Chances are, you're going to want to send an e-mail to every school you apply to in order to ask about kosher dining, but you might want to ask about other things as well.</p>
<p>For example, if you observe the Sabbath, you might want to try to find out what obstacles there may be to this on campus and what accommodations the college will make. For example, I believe that some colleges are willing to assign Sabbath observers to only the lower floors of high-rise dorm buildings since they understand that these students cannot use the elevators on the Sabbath. Another issue that sometimes comes up is card swiping. At many colleges, students must swipe their ID cards in an electronic device to get into their dorm buildings. This can present a problem for Sabbath observers. Does the school provide an alternate way for you to get into the building on the Sabbath (like showing your ID to a guard, maybe)? Does the school have Saturday classes? Are any of them required in your major? Does the school have a requirement that you must be out of your dorm within 24 hours after your last final exam (my son attends a college that has this rule), and can you get this waived if it would require you to travel on the Sabbath? If you observe the Sabbath, you may need to think about issues like these and ask the right questions.</p>
<p>If you are very observant, you also may want to ask about issues that relate to modesty and separation of the sexes. Do you want a single-sex dorm? Do they even exist on the campus you're investigating? Is phys ed required for graduation? Are men and women in the same phys ed classes? What do people have to wear for phys ed? Will you have to take a swim test with members of the opposite sex present? (At some schools, including Columbia and Cornell, you have to pass a swim test to graduate.) Can the school provide you with an opportunity to take the test in a single-sex environment if wearing a bathing suit in the presence of opposite-sex people who are not family members is a problem for you?</p>
<p>Perhaps these issues are not important to you; perhaps they are. If they are, make sure to ask before you fork over your application fee.</p>
<p>The University of Chicago now has Kosher meal plans, and provide alternatives for PE, etc. for religious reasons. It has an active Jewish community, including a chapter of AEPI fraternity.</p>
<p>At Berkeley, the local Hillel has a cafeteria and meal plan which I presume is kosher. There are a number of good Kosher restaurants in town as well. </p>
<p>I think your options are wider than you think, a lot of the big schools might have similar offerings for your dietary needs.</p>
<p>lill-K: Kosher is a dietary set of rules for observant Jews.
Moz: I'd guess GW= George Washington U</p>
<p>Brandeis of course.</p>
<p>Lots of good suggestions here.</p>
<p>Not clear on why you can't take the SAT II's or the ACT, though.</p>
<p>There are a large number of schools that offer kosher options--from Washington University to Vassar. To generalize, almost any academically elite school, any school in an urban area and any school of any size at all in the northeast should have kosher food available. Find schools you want and then check out the Hillel site--you can always contact the school's Hillel if the site doesn't give you enough information.</p>
<p>Stanford also has a Kosher Co-op.</p>
<p>I know Dartmouth has a cafeteria with kosher offerings that is fairly popular with the student body in general. And I think dg5052 is right- most schools will have kosher foods available.</p>
<p>Hmm, I didn't know that some Colleges ask for an electronic ID. All the colleges I've seen ask for no such thing unless you want to go to certain sections of the building, such as the gym or library. In all honesty, I thought finding a Kosher Cafeteria in Universities would be a really hard thing to find. And to be fair, I'm not THAT stringent that I can't even look at a girl. Trust me: I'm more in the middle. (And my thought process is all the way in the bottom. Trust me;) )</p>
<p>And to 2boysima: I can't take it, because I thought you can take the SAT I & II's on the same test day. I guessed wrong, and leave September.
Anyway, since my mom works in Columbia, I asked her to ask the question for me.</p>
<p>Case Western and i think UMich</p>
