About the program
Young women from a range of high schools (girls-only, co-ed, Bais Yaakov, community schools and NCSY) spending a year in Israel; the school describes itself as a Dati-Leumi (Religious Zionist) seminary.
Students design their own schedule from a large course catalog covering Tanach, Halacha, Jewish thought, Gemara, Mussar, Chasidut and more, choosing level and the balance of text-based and discussion classes. Each student has a weekly meeting with a faculty mentor (rakezet). The year includes volunteering in Jerusalem, a school Shabbaton about once a month, study days and trips.
