Eligibility

 

The Law Program application for admission via TAU International is open to students who cannot benefit from an existing direct exchange agreement between universities.  Applicants must be accomplished undergraduate or graduate students enrolled at accredited higher education institutions outside of Israel. Generally, a minimum GPA of 80 on a scale of 100, or 3.0 on a scale of 4.0, or equivalent is required. This program is suitable for students enrolled in undergraduate or graduate Law studies. While exceptions can sometimes be made, this is a big requirement.

 

 

  How do I apply? 

 

1. Go to the PORTAL, and create a profile

2. Once you have created a profile, you must apply to a program. Prospective students may apply for a fall or spring law Semester instead of a full year. To apply for a semester, please select the application on the TAU Student Portal that is called “Fall Semester - Law" or “Spring Semester-Law”. To apply for the Gap Year, select “Year Law Program". 

3. You can now start your application by completing the application form. 

4. Once you have completed the application form, please find below a list of REQUIRED ADMISSIONS DOCUMENTS: 

• Transcripts: Official transcript from all high school institutions you attended. Professionally certified English translations (by a notary) of each transcript (where applicable) must be included if needed. Please also include a copy of any diploma received..
• English Proficiency: All applicants applying to TAU International English-speaking programs who are from non-English speaking countries or are non-native speakers of English must provide proof of English proficiency as part of the application requirements.

• Hebrew Proficiency (if needed): Proof of Hebrew language proficiency, if requesting exemption from Ulpan due to fluency in Hebrew
• Recommendation letters: Two recommendation letters are required for application to our programs
• Passport: A copy of your passport. This is extremely important, as once you are confirmed, this document will be needed to create you into our system, provide you with access to all TAU services
• CV: Sometimes this is required, depending on the program. If you have one, it is always good to list.
• Home Institution Approval Form *US Students Only*: If you are currently studying at a US institution, please have the Home Institution Approval Form filled out by your Study Abroad Advisor and upload it to your student portal account.

Medical forms, code of conduct, letter of agreement, and any other forms, will be asked after the acceptance process.

 

 

 Ulpan Requirement

 

All students are required to enroll in an intensive Hebrew course called the Pre-term Hebrew Ulpan prior to the start of their semester or year. When applying for the program, you will automatically be admitted to the corresponding Ulpan program (either summer or winter) unless you provide proof of very advanced Hebrew language proficiency via an official exemption exam. If you feel you may need an exemption exam, please contact OUR TEAM. Note that exemption exams will be sent only to accepted and confirmed students.
