EYAHT (Hebrew: איה״ת, a Hebrew abbreviation for the Biblical Hebrew: אשה יראת ה' היא תתהלל "It is for her fear of the LORD / That a woman is to be praised", Proverbs 31:30), was a full-time college for advanced Jewish learning for women in Jerusalem.
Geared to unaffiliated, college-educated and professional women aged 22–30 from English-speaking countries, EYAHT introduced women to the basics of Orthodox Judaism and encouraged them to integrate it into their lives. Most of its students became baalot teshuva ("returnees to the faith"). EYAHT has over 2,000 alumnae.
