Visiting Students

Tel Aviv University (TAU) enables students from institutions around the world to conduct research as Visiting Students for a period of maximum two years.

A Student Exchange Agreement is NOT required for this purpose, as long as the student completes the application process and receives a letter of invitation.

The form will route back to TAU International for final approval.
