About The Program

Yeshivat Sha'alvim is a program of rigorous Torah and Judaic studies for graduates of yeshiva high schools who want to learn with Israeli students at a Hesder Yeshiva. At Sha'alvim, students experience a broad education, which instill in them a deep appreciation for everything Torah represents. Sha'alvim enables its graduates to build the necessary foundation for living strong religious lives. In addition, the yeshiva instills in its students the self-confidence and leadership qualities needed to return to their communities and contributing members and leaders utilizing the skills, idealism, and determination they acquired in Sha'alvim.

About Jerusalem

The city where past and present meet. Established over 3,000 years ago, the city of Jerusalem offers you the chance to literally reach out and touch the past. Known as the city of gold, Jerusalem is a magical mix of ancient and modern, where outdoor shuks (markets) rub shoulders with gleaming office towers. The city's most popular spots include a vibrant downtown with world-class restaurants and shopping, and the Old City, a maze of winding alleyways and colorful markets enclosed by walls dating back to the 16th century.
