At TAU, you can choose to study in English, in Hebrew, or enroll in an academic integration track for new Olim that enables you to start your studies in English (or French) and graduate in Hebrew

 

 Academic Integration Tracks for New Olim

 

The academic integration track offers a distinctive educational path, allowing new Olim to start their studies in English (or in French) and complete them in Hebrew. Run in cooperation with the Israel Student Authority, these fully-funded programs include English/French-taught classes for the first year or first two years, along with intensive Hebrew language studies.

The track is designed to support Olim students and does not require psychometric test results for admission.

If you need to take a Mechina, you can do it at Bar Ilan University, which TAU has an agreement with.
