The program’s target audience consists of undergraduate students in the following fields: law, business administration, music, education and social sciences, nursing, computer science, advertising, and marketing communications—men and women from the religious and national-religious sectors, baalei teshuva, and Haredim who are studying on the general campus.
What is the essence of the Religious Zionism Administration? What kind of support does the Administration offer? What sets us apart —the Religious Zionism Administration provides personalized guidance and support, a warm welcome, and assistance throughout the entire degree program on any issue or matter related to studies at the campus. In addition, the Administration provides a social, communal, and religious framework in the form of classes, conferences, enrichment sessions, activities, and tours.
Admission Requirements – Submission of a scholarship application (affidavit attesting to a religious lifestyle and religious education + a letter of recommendation from a rabbi)
Tuition/Scholarships – Yachad Scholarship – Amount varies depending on the field of study. (Up to 31,800 NIS for a bachelor’s degree)
The Hillel Scholarship—for ultra-Orthodox Jews who have left the faith—is similar to the Yachad Scholarship.
Socioeconomic Scholarships – Available only during the degree program and upon request.
Campuses where the program is active:
Ono / Jerusalem / Haredi / Haifa – The program is relevant to: Ono and Jerusalem.
The scholarship is also available in Haifa. (In Haifa, due to the small number of students, the scholarship is offered without activities.)
Notes – Every student at Ono Academic College can apply for a scholarship, regardless of their background; however, it is important to emphasize that not everyone who attended a religious school is religious today, and vice versa. Likewise, not everyone who observes Shabbat and keeps kosher is religious—if there is any doubt during the meeting, please feel free to call us or refer the candidates to our office.
