In general, Bais Medrash Govoha has maintained an unwavering stance on its “freezer” policy, with the hanhalah consistently enforcing the restriction on bochurim dating during their initial months in the yeshiva. The policy has long been regarded as a cornerstone of the yeshiva’s approach, designed to allow new talmidim to fully immerse themselves in learning. Despite periodic rumors or external pressure due to the growing shidduch crisis, Bais Medrash Govoha has shown no inclination to bend or reinterpret its guidelines.
