Israel Experience at Bar Ilan University

In the 2021-2022 school year, our program brought students from the US to israel for a year of academic study at Bar Ilan university. The students had approximately 20 trip days in which we took them to many historic and religious sites throughout the country. That included overnight trips in the desert, the Golan Heights, Hebron, Tiberias, Safed and Jerusalem. They had volunteer internships (at hospitals, schools, etc.), enrichment courses (many completed paramedic training) and israel advocacy. There was a full schedule of enrichment programming every week night including optional Torah learning, karate, dance, cooking, and sports. In addition to receiving a full year of university credits, most students developed a greater appreciation for Judaism and for Israel
