Masa Israel Scholarship

Israel Program Suspensions: While Masa Israel has been a partner with the University of Minnesota for many years, no students are approved for study abroad or other University-purpose travel in Israel until further notice given the state of war and the cessation of travel insurance by our provider of coverage for faculty and students.

Masa Israel works to make it as easy as possible for young adults to go to Israel. We offer grants and scholarships to help make the experience more affordable, and collect information about other grants and scholarships available for long-term Israel programs from third party organizations. Take a look at our Grant and Scholarship Policy to find out more about eligibility criteria and for information about what you’ll need to apply. This scholarship can be used for the Learning Abroad Center's University Study in Israel programs, at either Hebrew University in Jerusalem or University of Haifa.
