FAQ
How much does the course cost?
We can’t provide pricing information on our website, but we can guarantee that a very attractive price is available to international couples! Please contact Reichman university for this information: Ulpanrris@runi.ac.il or +972-9-960-2771.
Must I attend all classes?
Attend classes as you wish. However, if you miss more than 5 days (out of 25), you won’t be eligible for the completion certificate! Also, you won’t be refunded for classes you did not attend.
I have no Hebrew knowledge, do I need to take the placement exam?
There is no need for a placement exam if you have no prior knowledge of Hebrew. You will be assigned to the most basic level course.
My Hebrew is pretty good already, is the course also suitable for me?
Yes! The Intensive Summer Ulpan offers a variety of levels, up to level ‘ה’, which is suitable for those who can already read, write, and speak Hebrew confidently, and who want to deepen their skills for academic, professional, or personal purposes. If you can hold complex conversations, understand Hebrew media, and write with ease, this level may be a good fit for you.
Will I have to do homework?
Yes. Expect at least one hour of homework per day in this intensive Hebrew course. Practice makes perfect!
I changed my mind after paying. Can I get a refund?
You can get a refund of the course fee until June 20th, minus a registration fee of 350 NIS which is non-refundable after payment. Refunds will not be possible after June 20th.
