Summer / Winter Hebrew Intensive Course (Ulpan)

INTENSIVE HEBREW COURSE (ULPAN)

The Ulpan is offered twice each year, during the summer and winter prior to the beginning of each semester. Undergraduate and graduate students alike enroll in this course prior to beginning their overseas programs. The goal of this course is to equip students with the language skills required to enhance their Israel experience.

Students may apply for several options of intensive Hebrew Ulpan.

• Track 2 taught for 4 weeks starting in late July. Students earn a total of 4 academic credits.
• Winter Ulpan taught for 4 weeks preceding the spring semester. Students earn a total of 4 academic credits.

Students who are continuing with the semester program may take additional Hebrew courses as part of their course curriculum, and continue to advance through the levels, as described below.

The curriculum is comprised of 11 levels. The beginners' level is taught as an intensive course only. The other levels are offered as both intensive and semester-long courses, as described in detail in our Ulpan level descriptions.
