Summer Study: For Rabbinical and Jewish Education Students

 

June 10th-August 4th, 2012

Yeshivat Hadar welcomes future Rabbis or Jewish educational professionals to learn in our beit midrash. Seminaries and Graduate Schools often have funding to help defray the cost of tuition.

  • Enroll in classes at Yeshivat Hadar.  To see a sampling of summer classes at Yeshivat Hadar please click here.
  • Study Talmud, Tanakh, Halakhah and Mahshevet Yisrael in depth.
  • Work on your Jewish textual skills and expand your knowledge base in a supportive and lively beit midrash setting.

Rabbinical and Jewish Education students can also apply to be full-time students in our immersive summer program. Candidates whose professional goals will advance Yeshivat Hadar’s vision for a vibrant, practicing egalitarian Judaism in the broader Jewish community are invited to apply for our immersion program.  As a full-time student:

  • You will be a fully integrated member of the student community and will be expected to participate fully in all aspects of life at the Yeshiva
  • Opportunities to teach at the Yeshiva and receive constructive feedback from the faculty.
  • Faculty will be available for special sessions to discuss your professional challenges and goals.

If you feel that you could be a force for Yeshivat Hadar’s vision in your professional future and are interested in being a full -time participant in the summer session, please apply.  The process is competitive and accepted students will receive tuition remission.  You can apply here.
