Tel Aviv: Culture, Nightlife, Beaches, What Else Is There?

Helpful

If you have any feeling that you want to study abroad in Israel, specifically Tel Aviv, do it. Even if you have never been there, it is not a difficult place to get used to. The culture and atmosphere is so vibrant and beautiful, the Mediterranean Sea being a 15 minute walk from your apartment, the "up till the morning" nightlife, it is all amazing and those six months I s... view full review

I have realized that Israel will always be a place in my heart and be a place that I will continue visiting and supporting for the rest of my life. I learned it is important to be more easygoing and not stress about little things. view full review

The type of student who would appreciate this the most is definitely someone Jewish-it is the Jewish State and it is easier to connect to in that way. However, I knew plenty of Non-Jews who were on the program and still were able to experience the culture, just in a different way. People who love history, art, culture, etc. would love Tel Aviv. My words of wisdom would... view full review

The workload was less than I am used to at Pacific but the grading was more difficult. Most of my classes just had one or two tests. view full review

Tel Aviv: My New Home Away From Home

Helpful

Not Helpful

Absolutely. Going abroad was the best decision that I made in college. I wanted to go to Australia, but that didn't work out, but Israel exceeded my expectations. I became much more independent and my self-confidence grew significantly while I was abroad. I'm definitely more away of the political climate in the Middle East and now that I feel a stronger connection to Israe... view full review

It was amazing. I made great friends, and was in an awesome country. I felt safe the whole time. The classes were interesting and very relevant. The staff was friendly. The organized trips were a ton of fun. The social scene was better than any other I've ever experienced. view full review

Cultural Immersion Success in Tel Aviv

Helpful

I feel as though the experience is what you put into it. If you are looking for an American style experience in which you feel comfortable it is there, or you can stretch yourself and live in the city. Whatever you are looking for, it is there. view full review

Studying in Israel: Unlimited opportunities to Explore the region

Helpful

Not Helpful

Absolutely worthwhile. Though it took a few days before I decided I didn't want to transfer to another, more serious program in Israel, it turned out to be an incredible experience. A great chance to party, get cultural exposure, and really learn about life in the region and in Israel. So many opportunities to explore the region. view full review

Tel Aviv is one of the most amazing cities in the world. Go on this program. Go alone (so many Americans go with groups of 10+...). Get an apartment with an Israeli roommate. Make friends with Israelis. Practice your Hebrew. Enjoy yourself because it will be over before you can say "shalom." view full review

The Overseas Program (OSP), at Tel Aviv University, did not have the highest standards for their academic programs. It was nice that professors were lenient with absences, as it allowed us to be flexible with our travels. In general, classes were very easy, and all of them related to Middle East policy or Israel as a whole. view full review
