7 College Counselors. 9 Campuses. One Eye-Opening Trip to Israel.

Описание: As more students ask about studying in Israel, Tzemach David and JLIC brought together 7 college counselors from New York, Ohio, New Jersey, and Massachusetts to experience Israeli universities firsthand.

They visited 9 campuses across the country, traveling from Be’er Sheva to Haifa and everywhere in between. They met with university representatives, JLIC directors, students, and a representative from the Ministry of Aliyah. They learned about academics, admissions, campus life, and Jewish life — and what makes each school different.

One day included touring a campus, the Old City, and shuk Machane Yehuda — in the rain, with umbrellas.

“It's been an amazing experience, I've been learning so much.”

“Going to college in Israel is an excellent opportunity for a lot of American students who might not have thought about it before, so I’m really glad to see this and tell them about it as a potential pathway.”

“One thing that surprised me about the universities in Israel is how easy it is to be shomer Shabbat and observant — and even just to be a proud Jew — on these campuses.”

The goal was simple: give counselors real knowledge and real context so they can better guide the growing number of students considering Israel as part of their college journey.
