As Israel’s leading university, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem educates the top students: those who will lead Israeli academia, society, industry, and beyond. Given this responsibility, we are committed to ensuring that all qualified students, no matter their background or financial capacity, can attain an undergraduate degree, and to encouraging and enabling the most promising graduate students to realize their potential for advancing knowledge. To this end, at the undergraduate level, we provide scholarships based upon demonstrated financial need as well as excellence. At the graduate level, we provide scholarships for our best students, ensuring that they can devote themselves fully to their research and become leaders in their fields.

Need-based scholarships not only ensure that worthy students of all backgrounds can achieve a degree from a top institution and the social mobility it brings with it, but that the campus community will benefit from diverse perspectives. These students can also be a gateway to advancement for communities traditionally under-represented in higher education. Merit scholarships help the University retain the best and brightest students at all degree levels. Students fuel research institutions. Their questions, curiosity, and new energy help move ideas forward. At the graduate level, students play a central role in pursuing cuttingedge research across the University, making progress possible.

An investment in students is not only an investment in Leadership for Tomorrow, but an investment in Israel, innovation, and discovery.
