“This fair is designed to open students’ eyes to the possibilities of pursuing their degrees in Israel,” says Rabbi Jonathan Shulman, director of JLIC Israel. “These programs offer not just academic excellence, but also an incredible life experience in one of the world’s most dynamic countries.”

Attendees will discover:

  • Dozens of degree programs taught entirely in English

  • Unparalleled post-college job placement rates
  • Significant tuition savings as compared to U.S. universities

Beyond academics, students studying in Israel join a vibrant international community. They become part of a melting pot of cultures from Australia, Europe, South America, South Africa, Canada and the United States, and they are supported by warm, welcoming communities and JLIC’s comprehensive network for English-speaking students.

The fair will address crucial questions about:

  • Admissions processes
  • Campus living arrangements
