Students who are unable to pay the full cost of a Neve education should first investigate the possibility of receiving monetary support from Jewish Federations, local synagogues, youth groups, or other organizations that offer scholarships for study in Israel. If the student is still unable to fully fund her education, she may apply to the Neve School of General Jewish Studies for financial assistance. The school will send a Financial Assistance Request Form on which the student can document her economic hardship.
