This new system will be operational by March 16, 2008.  Check our website then for information on how to complete the online MASA application form.  Please do not use the 2007-8 application forms for the 2008-9 academic year. They cannot be processed in the new system. (For programs starting before July, 2008 click here) Please note: MASA funding is for first-time participants in a long-term Israel program only.  All applications for MASA funding must be received by MASA no later than 60 days before the start of the program.
