If you are filling out the application online - please attach your photo to your essay.

Three recommendations must be submitted.  Recommendations must be typed or completed on a computer.

Please print out three recommendation forms and obtain one recommendation from your rabbi, one from your principal, rebbe or teacher, and one from a person not related to you (if your rabbi is your father, ask someone else who is in a position to know you to write the recommendation). Please make sure to put your name and social security number on each recommendation form. Acceptance to a school in Israel is not a requirement for applying.

For sample letters of recommendation, please email . 

The completed recommendation forms should be returned directly to the Scholarship Fund (not to you). You may want to give your recommendors an addressed and stamped envelope with the form to speed up the process.
