Telshe Yeshiva (Yiddish: טעלזער ישיבה; Lithuanian: Telšių ješiva; also spelled Telz) is a yeshiva in Wickliffe, Ohio, formerly located in Telšiai, Lithuania. During World War II the yeshiva relocated to Cleveland, Ohio in the United States and is now known as the Rabbinical College of Telshe, commonly referred to as Telz Yeshiva, or Telz for short. In 1957, the yeshiva moved out of Cleveland proper to the Wickliffe suburb.
It is a Haredi (ultra-orthodox) institution of Torah study, with additional branches in Chicago (which eventually became its own institution, no longer associated with the Cleveland Yeshiva) and in New York. It is the successor of the New Haven Yeshiva of Cleveland.
