ADMISSIONS

Registration for a Master’s degree consists of two stages:

a.  University level: (Office of Registration and Admissions) online or by means of a registration packet.

b.  Faculty level: by setting up an account in the registration system, filling in details and attaching a transcript of grades including the Bachelor’s degree average grade and authorization of entitlement to a Bachelor’s degree. The procedure is completed by entering the “application status” page and following the instructions.

• Candidates who have studied/are studying toward the Bachelor’s degree at the Hebrew University may attach an unofficial transcript of grades (based on personal knowledge).

• Candidates who have not yet received their authorization of entitlement to a Bachelor’s degree should attach only a transcript which includes just the degree grade average.

Further information can be obtained by telephone 08- or email.

Registration opens in January. It is highly recommended that students register by the end of July of the same year in order to maximize their chances for acceptance and to enable the teaching program to integrate students into practice positions and award scholarships to those who are worthy and suitable.

Those registering should check the teaching program’s requirements regarding when contact should be made with the supervisor. If there is such a requirement, students should contact a supervisor already at the time of registration.

Students applying for Master’s studies should contact the teaching program with which they are registering to check the conditions for receiving a position or scholarship.

EXEMPTION FROM UNIVERSITY-LEVEL “ENGLISH” STUDIES

If you have graduated from an academic institution recognized by the Israeli Council for Higher Education  you will be exempt from this requirement and not need to study English.

CANDIDATES WHO HOLD A BACHELOR’S DEGREE FROM A NON-ISRAELI INSTITUTION OF HIGHER EDUCATION

These candidates:

a.  will register with the Office of Overseas Students Registration and Admissions in the Goldschmidt Building, Mount Scopus, telephone 02-5882607.

b.  will set up an account in the registration system and fill in the registration form.

NOTE

Final admission to the degree will be approved only after candidates present an authorization of entitlement and final grade for the Bachelor’s degree.

Candidates who have not been exempted from English language studies, if admitted, may commence their studies only if they provide an exemption from English by the beginning of the academic year.

As a rule, the Master’s studies program commences in semester 1 of the academic year, but in some teaching programs it is possible to join Master’s studies in semester 2. Students who wish to do so should apply to the secretariat for Master’s studies no later than a month before the beginning of semester 2.

The final date for submitting the Bachelor’s degree authorization is the beginning of the next academic year.
