Admission of applicants with mechina certificates

The final average of grades from graduates of other mechinot will be calculated based on the following subjects: Mathematics at a level of at least 3 units.

Special track

Exceptions to the admission requirements

The college will allow the admission of up to 10% of the students in each study program who do not meet the admission requirements for reasons such as: improving access to higher education in Israel. The unique needs of diverse communities in Israel and the multicultural nature of society. Special personal and academic circumstances that justify exceptional admission.

These are minimum requirements: meeting them does not by itself guarantee admission.

For every track

• Present a portfolio:
• An aptitude test assessing general knowledge of Judaism and the ability to perceive and think about visual forms.
• Interview with the head of the department.
If your average is below 85, you may be required to take the psychometric exam or a Council for Higher Education exam.
