Students: Scholarships, Support & Student Life
Getting into Bar-Ilan University (BIU) is just the first hurdle for students. From paying tuition and accessing labs, to finding quiet study spaces and receiving extra academic support, success requires more than what happens in the classroom. None of this would be possible without donor support. By contributing to our students, you provide the resources they need to thrive, especially in a region where external challenges add to the difficulty of university life. Your gift can make all the difference in their success.

Israel’s top researchers leave the country for post-doctoral work at universities abroad, drawn by cutting-edge research and advanced equipment. To retain these brilliant minds, we must offer similar opportunities at BIU. Your support helps us create state-of-the-art labs with the latest technology, bringing these researchers back to Israel where they can continue their groundbreaking work and strengthen the nation’s academic standing. Without this investment, Israel risks losing its brightest talents and its future in global academia.

BIU researchers are tackling some of today’s most important opportunities, from sustainability and personalized medicine to cybersecurity and AI. These critical areas demand bold, innovative solutions—solutions that require significant resources. Your support fuels this vital research, driving breakthroughs that improve lives and advance society.

At BIU, all students graduate with a deeper understanding of what it means to be Jewish and to have a Jewish state. Jewish students often discover new and more profound ways to connect with their own identity, while non-Jewish students develop a greater appreciation for Jewish history and tradition. By engaging all students, regardless of background or academic focus, in Jewish studies, we foster a shared sense of responsibility to preserve and celebrate Judaism across the Jewish state. Your support ensures that our Jewish Core remains vibrant and engaging, offering every student a meaningful connection that strengthens our Jewish community both in Israel and around the world.

Many marginalized and disadvantaged populations in Israel face significant barriers to essential services such as legal aid and medical care. BIU addresses these critical needs through a network of student- and faculty-led legal clinics, offering support for women, the elderly, and underserved communities, as well as medical programs that provide home visits to those in need. These initiatives not only deliver crucial services to individuals who might otherwise go without but also serve as invaluable training opportunities for our students—the professionals of tomorrow. Your support makes these life-changing services possible, directly improving the lives of those most in need today while creating stronger professionals for the future.
