The Rabbinical College of America, located in Morristown, New Jersey, is one of the largest Chabad Lubavitch Chasidic yeshivas in the world. The school primarily focuses on providing an intensive study of the Talmud, along with Halacha (Jewish law), Chasidic philosophy, and other Jewish texts. The emphasis at Rabbinical College of America is on developing a deep understanding of these texts and traditions, as well as developing the ability to apply these teachings to contemporary issues.

In terms of reputation, the school is well-regarded within the Orthodox Jewish community - its alumni have gone on to become leaders in Jewish communities worldwide and have established many Chabad Houses and institutions.

In terms of majors, it should be noted that as a Rabbinical school, the primary focus is on religious studies. The offered courses are mainly scriptural and religious in nature. Therefore, it would be best to consider the Rabbinical College of America if you are specifically interested in a religious education or career path such as becoming a Rabbi, religious educator or Jewish community leader.

If you are interested in complementing Jewish studies with secular studies such as humanities, sciences, or other disciplines, you may want to consider universities or colleges that offer Jewish Studies alongside a range of other majors.

Remember to visit colleges that you're seriously considering, if possible, or at least get in touch with their admissions departments to better understand what's offered and to see if the college will be a good fit for you.
