International students can now apply for Israel's 2026-2027 scholarship program, with the application deadline set for June 1, 2026. This initiative by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs offers opportunities for both academic study and Hebrew language immersion.
The program features an eight-month academic scholarship, running from October to June, and a three-week Hebrew summer language course. Eligible academic pursuits include MA, PhD, post-doctoral studies, and special academic courses. The academic scholarship covers half of the tuition fees, capped at $6,000, along with a monthly stipend and basic health insurance.
The Hebrew language scholarship provides full tuition, accommodation, a weekly allowance, and health insurance for its three-week duration. Applicants must be under 35, hold a BA or BSc degree, and meet language proficiency requirements for their chosen program. Crucially, the scholarship does not cover travel or accommodation costs.
Recipients must be accepted into an institution recognized by the Israeli Council for Higher Education and obtain an A2 student visa, which prohibits employment. Interested individuals should contact their local Israeli embassy for detailed application procedures and submission deadlines.
