It was the experience and adventure of a lifetime. My daughter grew in ways I did not even realize that she would and that she needed.  She made American, British, and Israeli friendships that will last a lifetime.  It was a year where it was much better to be in Israel than on campus.

One of the best decisions we've ever made.  A life changing experience where our daughter made life-long friends, reinforced a deep connection to Israel and its people, learned about the history and some of the political landscape from real life experience and created greater self-awareness.

This was a transformative year for my son. Year Course provided the framework for him to mature and become a responsible young adult. While Israel has always been a part of his make-up, his love for the country was strengthened. He formed lifelong friendships which he cherishes.

Year Course provided my daughter with an amazing experience that really enriched her life and strengthened her love for Israel and the Israeli people.

There is no other experience like this one. We felt confident that for our daughter, this was going to be a year of growth, maturity, responsibility, and independence.  

It was the best decision we ever made! Life changing for our daughter in the best possible way. She matured and found a purpose and a sense of belonging to a part of something bigger than herself.
