Scholarships of up to $6,000 to USA post-secondary students to study at a qualifying academic institution in Israel. Partial scholarships, not connected to financial need, will be awarded to students attending one of the following universities for credit: Bar-Ilan University, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, University of Haifa, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Interdisciplinary Center, The Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies, Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Tel Aviv University, or The Weizmann Institute of Science. Study at other qualified university and study programs will be considered.
The purpose of the program is to foster Jewish spiritual and cultural values through the experience of living and studying in Israel and, at the same time, strengthen the ties that bind Jews in the United States to Jews in Israel so that upon returning to the United States, scholarship winners will be better able to communicate those ties to American Jewry.
In addition to tuition funding, AJLI provides scholars with a unique bonding experience by hosting events, dinners, and group activities for the scholars during their time abroad.
Eligible programs include undergraduate studies (one semester or a full year), graduate studies, post-doc studies, etc.
