Come Home
For College

“Even though I’ve always found Israel to be warm and welcoming, I worried my Yussie would be alone and have trouble making friends so far from his home and family. Nothing could have been further from the truth, thanks to College in Israel. He’s made the same kind of lifelong friends at Hebrew U that he might have made here in the States. He even found a shul that he loved – maybe not as much as our congregation where he was Bar Mitzvahed here in Great Neck, but who’s complaining? And his degree? He’s getting more and we’re paying less than we ever could have imagined. We couldn’t be happier... or prouder of our son!”

“I came home for college and got my undergraduate degree from Tel Aviv University. I was a double major in Nanotechnology and Quantum Science and Technology. I met my husband, Ori, while I was at school. He was studying business. We moved back to the US and now I’m a roboticist outside Boston. Every day I work with graduates from MIT, Harvard, Stanford and more – and let me tell you, I’m enjoying life more than they are, partially because I don’t have the mountain of college debt they do! Ori is working on his MBA at Brandeis – he sailed into their business school and he’s as well or better prepared as his fellow students. And when he gets done, we’re going to start our family.”
