Admission requirements

You can be admitted through one of these tracks:

By bagrut, no psychometric exam

Admission requirements

  • An average grade of 85 or higher on the bagrut certificate or in a pre-academic mechina, or a weighted score of 85 or higher on a practical engineer diploma.
  • An admissions interview, at the discretion of the departmental admissions committee.
  • 3 units in English in the bagrut with a passing grade

Special track

Conditional admission

  • An average of 75 or higher on the bagrut certificate or in a pre-academic mechina, or a weighted score of 75 or higher on a practical engineer diploma.
  • 3 bagrut units in English with a passing grade, or a grade of 75 or higher in English in mechina studies or on a practical engineer diploma.
  • An admissions interview, at the discretion of the departmental admissions committee.

Special track

Review of exceptional cases

  • Applicants whose admission scores do not meet the requirements listed above, or who have certificates for previous studies, may submit a written, reasoned request for exceptional admission. Suitable applicants from among those who apply will be invited to an admission interview.
  • In accordance with Council for Higher Education guidelines, the department may admit up to 10% of applicants who do not meet the admission requirements as exceptional cases, plus an additional 8% of exceptional cases on the grounds of reserve duty and service as combat soldiers during regular service, as well as parents of a child under 13 whose spouse served at least 42 days during the year preceding registration.
  • In addition, in exceptional and rare cases, in accordance with Council for Higher Education guidelines and at the department’s discretion, an exemption may be granted and admission without a bagrut certificate may be allowed for applicants who have demonstrated that their ability to study was severely affected due to significant and lengthy service in the war (more than 90 days) and/or a significant injury sustained during military service in the war and/or other affected groups, such as those who were orphaned of their parents as a result of the events of 7.10, returned hostages, and similar cases.

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

For every track

  • Requirements for advancing to the second year: an average of 75 or higher is required by the end of the first year.
  • Applicants with a bagrut certificate or a pre-academic mechina from a school where the language of instruction is not Hebrew will be admitted conditionally and registered for a Hebrew course, which will open at a later date.
