Wesleyan Program in
israel
The Wesleyan University Program in
Israel is run at, and in consortium with, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem
(HUJ). This spring-semester program maintains the high academic standards
and dedication to a sound liberal arts education for which its sponsoring
institutions are known. The program accepts a maximum of 20 students from
Wesleyan University and other US colleges and universities. It runs from
mid-January to early June, and offers an ulpan (intensive Hebrew language
program), followed by matriculation at the HUJ and in two program core
courses. Course credit can be transferred easily to other colleges and
universities. Every effort is made to place students in courses from which
they will receive the maximum intellectual benefit.
Features of the Program
- The program is open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors in good
standing at Wesleyan and other US universities and colleges.
- The Rothberg School requires a 3.0 GPA minimum. No student who has
an outstanding grade of incomplete in any course at his or her home
institution may participate.
- All acceptances are subject to the approval of the selection
committee. Preference will be given to applicants from Wesleyan, but
students from other institutions are very welcome when space permits.
