APPLY TO BECOME A SCHOLAR

Every ‘why’ invites a ‘because’

If you seek to join the cadre of emerging scholars, you can begin your journey through our many programs individually tailored to your academic needs and interests.

As a Graduate Studies student, you will be guided by faculty mentors, our academic programs will provide you with a mastery of Hebrew and cognate languages of all periods; skills to reach primary texts within their historical contexts; and treatment of all areas of Jewish studies as they relate to core academic disciplines, including history, literature, law, philosophy, and religion.

The schools of Graduate Studies on all campuses offer many options from which to choose. We encourage you to learn more about each of these programs to find out which is right for you.
