HU Student from MtlShalom Chaverim,
I have been studying at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem since late January. So far, my experience in Israel has been amazing, learning Hebrew, going on great trips, and making new friends from all over the world. Since I am studying towards a degree in history, having the opportunity to learn in Jerusalem is a unique experience: living in a city over 3,000 years old and being in such close proximity to the Old City. I am enjoying my classes, two of which are “Arab-Israeli Conflict” and “Archeology of Jerusalem”. The courses I selected are either ones I could not take in Montreal or are just interesting to study in Israel.
