Four decades ago Tel Aviv University first opened its gates to accomplished students who came from all over the world to embark on a remarkable personal and academic journey. Tel Aviv University has since consistently ranked as one of the top institutions of higher learning world-wide. As a world-class academic institution, many members of its distinguished faculty have won international recognition and are considered leaders in their fields of research.

Oranim has partnered with the Overseas Program (OSP) at Tel Aviv University to provide participants access to world-class faculty and the beautiful campus in Ramat Aviv. Atid participants will study alongside OSP students in Ulpan and in academic courses - both of which offer valuable college credit.

Earn 9 credits per semester while learning from leaders in the fields of Jewish and Israeli History, Culture, Peoplehood and Identity.
